Supramolecular Reinforcement of Polymer-Nanoparticle Hydrogels for Modular Materials Design

Giovanni Bovone et al.

Summary: Moldable hydrogels are versatile materials used in biomedical and industrial applications. This study introduces a simple strategy to reinforce polymer-nanoparticle (PNP) hydrogels by adding alpha-cyclodextrin (alpha CD), resulting in enhanced mechanical properties. The supramolecular reinforcement of CD-PNP hydrogels allows for modular exchange of structural components and enables a wide range of applications.

Tailoring the Properties of Optical Force Probes for Polymer Mechanochemistry

Siyang He et al.

Summary: The correlation between the mechanical properties of polymer materials and their molecular constituents has led to the development of optical force probes (OFPs) to study unique mechanical behaviors. Polymers exhibit diverse properties, requiring tailored OFP solutions to meet energy, time, and spatial resolution needs. Researchers continue to highlight notable examples and address future challenges in this emerging field.

The many flavours of mechanochemistry and its plausible conceptual underpinnings

Robert T. O'Neill et al.

Summary: Mechanochemistry involves diverse phenomena where mechanical load influences chemical reactions, such as motor protein function, organic synthesis in a ball mill, reactions at a propagating crack, chemical actuation, and polymer fragmentation. The rate of deformation in mechanochemistry affects which and how many bonds break, either powering macroscopic motion in otherwise endergonic reactions or being driven by spontaneous chemical reactions. The complexity of mechanochemistry lies in the dynamic coupling between inertial motion at the microscale and changes in chemical bonding across multiple length scales and timescales.
