  • Publication number: 20230391963
    Abstract: A reversible stress-responsive material, a preparation method, and a use thereof are provided. The reversible stress-responsive material prepared by the present disclosure has the property of real-time reversible force response at room temperature. When used with crosslinked plastic (high Tg) and rubber (low Tg) polymer materials, the reversible stress-responsive material can significantly enhance the mechanical strength and ductility of covalently cross-linked polymers. In the present disclosure, the triazolinedione (TAD)-indole click chemistry with the force-induced reversible property is used to construct a force-reversible crosslinked polymer material, and such a force-induced reversible crosslinking method can achieve the breakage and re-forming of covalent crosslinking points at room temperature in a solid state without any external stimuli other than the ambient temperature.

  • Patent number: 11566112
    Abstract: A high-performance triple-crosslinked polymer and a preparation method thereof are provided. The polymer is obtained by curing and cross-linking a monomer having two epoxy groups, a cross-linking monomer and a functional monomer. The polymer contains a cross-linking network formed by covalent bonds and two types of multi-level hydrogen bonds with different strengths. The interaction strength between the covalent bonds and the two types of hydrogen bonds decreases in a gradient. The dilemma of the strength-ductility tradeoff in a high-performance polymer is overcome by forming a triple-crosslinked network with covalent bonds and multi-level hydrogen bonds with different strengths in the polymer. The dynamic and hierarchical hydrogen bonds are broken and recombined timely and continuously to concurrently maintain the complete structure of the polymer network and enable the polymer network to quickly respond to the transmission and dissipation of the external environment.

  • Patent number: 11143591
    Abstract: A method for detecting or comparing mechanical strength of macro-molecular polymer materials. The detecting method has the steps of measuring the mechanical strength and the maximum value of the fluorescence absorption spectrum of each of the plurality of samples to form a curve relationship or function relationship between the maximum value of the fluorescence absorption spectrum and the mechanical strength; measuring the maximum value of the fluorescence absorption spectrum of the target material, and using the curve relationship or the function relationship to obtain the mechanical strength of the target material. The plurality of samples and the target material are both prepared from a macro-molecular polymer, and the macro-molecular polymer may be composed of disulfonate-difluorobenzophenone, hydroxyindole and difluorobenzophenone as monomers, and the sulfonate groups of the disulfonate-difluorobenzophenone have metal cations.

  • Patent number: 10119005
    Abstract: A method for recovering, regenerating and repairing polymer. The method includes immersing a polymer in an acid solution so that hydrogen ions of the acid solution replace metal cations of the polymer to obtain an acid-treated polymer, and to realize the recovery of the polymers. Subsequently, the acid-treated polymer is immersed in an alkaline solution to obtain a base-treated polymer to realize the regeneration of the polymers. The polymer is composed of disulfonate-difluorobenzophenone, hydroxyindole and difluorobenzophenone as monomers, and sulfonate groups of the disulfonate-difluorobenzophenone have metal cations. The method replaces the metal cations with hydrogen ions to realize the recovery of the polymers and reduce environmental pollutions. The regeneration of polymers is realized by replacing the hydrogen ions with the metal cation, and resource recycling. Through the process of local repair, the service life of the product of polymers can be prolonged.
