Toughening Up Elastomers are soft polymer materials widely used in industry and daily life. Inspired by recent work on double-network hydrogels, Ducrot et al. (p. 186 ; see the Perspective Gong ) designed interpenetrated network elastomers that contained isotropically prestretched chains as first network. Double- triple-network structures yielded with very high strength toughness comparison corresponding single networks.
N,N′-Bicarbazole with almost spatially vertical structure was synthesized by a facile method and demonstrated as versatile building block for conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs) through transition metal catalyzed coupling polymerizations including Yamamoto, Suzuki, Sonogashira polymerizations. The porosities morphologies of four N,N′-bicarbazole-based CMPs were systematically studied compared. With high surface area, good thermal stability structure, the CMP Yamamoto polymerization...
Mechanoluminescent 1,2-dioxetane units, which emit light upon scission of the strained 4-membered ring, were incorporated into main chain segmented copolymers with poly(tetramethylene oxide) soft segments and various hard segments. Test samples polymers emitted applying strain. Polymers hydrogen bonding urethane or amide groups in showed stronger luminescence than polyester similar molecular weight. Increasing strain rate led to luminescence. The positive effect weight on emission intensity...
Abstract Organic crystals which can confine and guide optical waves on command are currently of considerable interest because their tremendous potentials in broadband communications, optoelectronic devices, high‐capacity information storage, etc. Polycyclic arenes, with tunable molecular structures, packing modes, photophysical properties, a highly versatile class organic materials, applicable as waveguide crystals. In this review, the waveguides polycyclic arene‐based discussed, focusing...
The unique topological features of Piezo proteins underlie the lever-like cellular mechanotransduction mechanism. This knowledge inspires us to seek topological/geometric control mechanochromophores with unprecedentedly amplified, synergistic changes in polymers serve as ideal stress probes. Here, by judicious placement two spirolactam rings into aminobenzopyranoxanthene, a series stereo- and regio-isomeric rhodamine-like mechanophores are developed. With labile bonds closely coupled one...
We report a versatile mechanophore exhibiting vividly detectable, light-regulable multicolor mechanochromism. Such optical features rely on the synergistic coupling of mechanochromic bis-rhodamine (Rh) and photochromic bisthienylethene (BTE). Poly(methyl acrylate)s incorporating this bis-mechanophore can be mechanically activated under sonication. The relative distribution two distinctly colored fluorescent Rh ring-opening products is altered with different magnitudes applied force....
Soil erosion is a significant global environmental issue, especially in important agricultural areas. This study focuses on the Huangshui River Basin Qinghai–Tibet Plateau from 2000 to 2022. The soil intensity, spatiotemporal changes rate, and its socio-economic influencing factors at three spatial scales (basin, city, county) were analyzed. results show that slight predominant across all scales, yet there are some localized areas with more severe erosion, like Guide County Hualong County....
Introduction Phosphorus (P) is a crucial growth-limiting nutrient in soil, much of which remains challenging for plants to absorb and use. Unlike chemical phosphate fertilizers, phosphate-solubilizing microorganisms (PSMs) offer means address available phosphorus deficiency without causing environmental harm. PSMs possess multiple mechanisms solubilization. Although the phosphorus-solubilizing bacteria (PSB) have been well characterized, utilized by fungi (PSF) remain largely unexplored....

Herein, series robust polyurethanes, 1,2-dioxetane aliphatic disulfide incorporated in main chain confined hard microphase, are developed. Taking advantage phase-locked bonds design strategy, these polymers exhibit excellent mechanical properties capability as well...
5,6,12,13-Tetraazaperopyrenes with different number of tert-butyl groups (c-TAPP-T, c-TAPP-H) were synthesized, via four-fold Bischler-Napieralski cyclization as the key step.

Compared to reported 1,3,8,10-tetraazaperopyrenes, significantly packing modes found in 5,6,12,13-tetraazaperopyrenes. Going c-TAPP-T c-TAPP-H, two additional lead...
Abstract Mechanofluorochromic polymers, which can indicate damage or excessive stress in highly polarized environments with a clearly perceptible optical signal, are potentially useful variety of exciting applications. However, most reported fluorochromic mechanophores exhibit poor color contrast and fluorescence penetration, irreversible phase after mechanical activation. Here, this challenge is tackled by designing engineering novel near‐infrared (NIR) emissive, rhodanmin derived...
Optical force probes that can release force-dependent and visualized signals with minimal changes in the polymer main chains under mechanical load are highly sought after but currently limited.
