摘要

Recent advancements in hydrogen-bonding crosslinked supramolecular polymer materials are comprehensively reviewed

with a focus on the design principles of hydrogen-bonding units featuring distinct side-chain chemical structures and the extensive applications of hydrogen bonding crosslinked systems. This review highlights how subtle structural variations in these units enable the fabrication of H-bonded supramolecular polymer materials with significantly diverse performances.

Abstract

Hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) are the most essential non-covalent interactions in nature

playing a crucial role in stabilizing the secondary structures of proteins. Taking inspiration from nature

researchers have developed several multiple H-bonds crosslinked supramolecular polymer materials through the incorporation of H-bond side-chain units into the polymer chains.

-acryloyl glycinamide (NAGA) is a monomer with dual amides in the side group

which facilitates the formation of multiple dense intermolecular H-bonds within poly(

-acryloyl glycinamide) (PNAGA)

thereby exhibiting diverse properties dependent on concentration and meeting various requirements across different applications. Moreover

numerous attempts have been undertaken to synthesize diverse NAGA-derived units through meticulous chemical structure regulation and fabricate corresponding H-bonding crosslinked supramolecular polymer materials. Despite this

the systematic clarification of the impact of chemical structures of side moieties on intermolecular associations and material performances remains lacking. The present review will focus on the design principle f

or synthesizing NAGA-derived H-bond side-chain units and provide an overview of the recent advancements in multiple H-bonds crosslinked PNAGA-derived supramolecular polymer materials

which can be categorized into three groups based on the chemical structure of H-bonds units: (1) monomers with solely cooperative H-bonds; (2) monomers with synergistic H-bonds and other physical interactions; and (3) diol chain extenders with cooperative H-bonds. The significance of subtle structural variations in these NAGA-derived units

enabling the fabrication of hydrogen-bonded supramolecular polymer materials with significantly diverse performances

will be emphasized. Moreover

the extensive applications of multiple H-bonds crosslinked supramolecular polymer materials will be elucidated.
