“…The networks exhibit a remarkable decrease in the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of the copolymer, from 35 C to around 15 C, as a result of the restriction to the mobility and solubility of the polymer. In a recent approach, Ritter, Barner-Kowollik, and colleagues attempted to synthesize CD-based hydrogels by using linear double end-chain functionalized adamantyl poly(N,N-dimethylacrylamide) cross-linked by a CD trimer [227]. In this approach, however, only viscous liquids and no gel-like materials were obtained.…”

Dynamic and adaptive materials are powerful constructs in macromolecular and polymer chemistry with a wide array of applications in drug delivery, bioactive systems, and self‐healing materials. Very often, dynamic materials are based on carefully tailored cyclodextrin host–guest interactions. The precise incorporation of these host and guest moieties into macromolecular building blocks allows the formation of complex macromolecular structures with predefined functions. Thus, dynamic materials with extraordinary adaptive property profiles—responsive to thermal, chemical, and photonic fields—become accessible. This Review explores the hierarchical formation of dynamic materials and complex macromolecular structures from the molecular via the macromolecular to the colloidal and macroscopic level, with a specific emphasis on the functionality and responsiveness of the assemblies, specifically in biological contexts.

“…It also serves to minimize chain entanglement, ensuring a low viscosity melt for ease of processing and preventing interruption of self-assembly during film formation . However, higher-molecular-weight polymer backbones also have been utilized when designing telechelic supramolecular polymers, especially to access specific architectures, such as supramolecular polymer grafted nanoparticles or as functional grafts for forming supramolecular polymer brushes; such strategies sacrifice a high concentration of supramolecular groups beneficial to tough material fabrication for precise dynamic structures. − …”

Supramolecular polymers allow access to dynamic materials, where noncovalent interactions can be used to offer both enhanced material toughness and stimuli-responsiveness. The versatility of self-assembly has enabled these supramolecular motifs to be incorporated into a wide array of glassy and elastomeric materials; moreover, the interaction of these noncovalent motifs with their environment has shown to be a convenient platform for controlling material properties. In this Viewpoint, supramolecular polymers are examined through their self-assembly chemistries, approaches that can be used to control their self-assembly (e.g., covalent cross-links, nanofillers, etc.), and how the strategic application of supramolecular polymers can be used as a platform for designing the next generation of smart materials. This Viewpoint provides an overview of the aspects that have garnered interest in supramolecular polymer chemistry, while also highlighting challenges faced and innovations developed by researchers in the field.
