High-level hierarchical morphology reinforcing covalent adaptable networks

Creep deformation presents as an inevitable drawback for lots of covalent adaptable networks (CANs). Recently in Cell Reports Physical Science, Chen and co-workers employed well-defined tri-block copolymers to construct CANs where the self-assembled microphase separation enables excellent creep resistance by restricting dynamic bond exchanges within isolated domains.

Automated summary

The study utilized well-defined tri-block copolymers to construct CANs, achieving excellent creep resistance through self-assembled microphase separation.
