Abstract: Described herein are methods and compositions relating to tunable nanoporous coatings. In certain aspects, described herein are methods and compositions wherein a tunable nanoporous coating comprises a tunable nanoporous membrane which transitions from opaque to transparent upon the application of force, and from transparent to opaque after washing with a solvent.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide for methods of detecting, sensors (e.g., chromogenic sensor), kits, compositions, and the like that related to or use tunable macroporous polymer. In an aspect, tunable macroporous materials as described herein can be used to determine the presence of a certain type(s) and quantity of liquid in a liquid mixture.

Abstract: Described are chromogenic sensors, methods of use, and kits including sensors. The sensors can have a polymer structure with a waveform cross-section in a programmed state. Upon exposure to a first liquid, the polymer structure in the programmed state changes to polymer structure in an activated state. Methods for measuring the presence of a liquid using the sensor are described, as are kits including the sensors.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides for porous polymer materials that include an ordered array of voids separated by a polymer framework. The porous polymer material can have a recovery state where the voids are in an uncollapsed state and iridescent color, and a deformed state having voids in a collapsed state that is non-iridescent or substantially transparent. The materials can have regions of both states simultaneously. Also described are methods for fabricating a polymer material as above, as well as chromogenic sensors including the polymer material. The sensors can have hidden anti-counterfeiting patterns, hydrophobic/oleophobic properties, and chromogenic transformation can be triggered by various stimuli such as solid target compounds, light energy, and more.
