Supramolecular Polymers with Orthogonal Functionality

Supramolecular Polymers with Orthogonal Functionality Report Title Supramolecular polymers with orthogonal interactions are of broad interest, and reports on such materials with multifunctional stimuli-responsive behavior are rare. Polymer blends based on a poly(ethylene-co-butylene) core (PEB) terminated with either 2-ureido-4[1H]-pyrimidinone (UPy) hydrogen-bonding motifs (UPy-PEB-UPy) or 2,6...

Final Report: Supramolecular Polymers With Multiple Types of Binding Motifs: From Fundamental Studies to Multifunctional Materials

Final Report: Supramolecular Polymers With Multiple Types of Binding Motifs: From Fundamental Studies to Multifunctional Materials Report Title This research project is focused on the development and investigation of a new class of multi-stimuli-responsive polymers, which are designed exhibit different responses upon exposure to different stimuli. The concept here is the development of material...

Metallo-supramolecular cyclic polymers.

Cyclic brush polymers represent an exciting new macromolecular topology. For the first time, this new topology has been combined with metallo-supramolecular interactions to construct novel cyclic brush polymers. Here, ring-expansion metathesis polymerization was used to synthesize a universal cyclic template with a polynorbornene backbone, which was further modified with the metal-chelating syn...
