This paper provides an overview on the research progress of self-reporting corrosion
protection coatings, which can autonomously indicate coating damages and metal corrosion …

The development of mechanophores as building blocks that serve as predefined weak
linkages has enabled the creation of mechanoresponsive and mechanochromic polymer …

Aggregate materials have attracted tremendous attention because of their modified or totally
different properties compared with their molecular counterparts. Among various mesoscopic …

Aggregation-induced emission luminogens (AIEgens) that respond to mechanical force are
increasingly used as force probes, memory devices, and advanced security systems. Most of …

Polymeric materials are susceptible to the chain re‐conformation, reorientation, slippage,
and bond cleavage upon mechanical stimuli, which are likely to further grow into macro …

Recently emerging mechanochromic systems are becoming highly attractive for structural
