“…[3][4][5] In particular, reversible polymers, constructed around reversiblec ovalent or non-covalentb onds, are desirable because they enable intrinsic self-healing capabilities through their dynamic features. From this perspective, although the dynamic covalent nature of boroxine-ring formation has been commonly used in the design of covalent organic frameworks (COF) at its best, [23][24][25][26] in our case, we wanted to exploit this feature to achieve as elf-healing mechanism.As shown in Figure1,i minoboronate consists of as tructure in whicha ni mine interactst hrough its nitrogen-atom lone pair of electrons with an electron-deficient boron, located in the boroxine in our case. [6] Although much research data on this particularb ranch of chemistry hasb een reported, the majord rawback is the requirement for energy-demanding externala ctivations [7] to induce reversibility,s uch as temperature, [8][9][10][11] pH changes, [12] or light.…”
