In recent decades, origami has been explored to aid in the design of engineering structures.
These structures span multiple scales and have been demonstrated to be used toward …

Abstract 4D printing has attracted tremendous interest since its first conceptualization in
2013. 4D printing derived from the fast growth and interdisciplinary research of smart …

From cars to airplanes, from household appliances to indoor ornaments, from biomedical
devices to factory equipment, epoxy resins have been deeply rooted in modern society. But …

Photodeformable liquid crystal polymers (LCPs) that adapt their shapes in response to light
have aroused a dramatic growth of interest in the past decades, since light as a stimulus …

Three-dimensional (3D) and Four-dimensional (4D) printing emerged as the next generation
of fabrication techniques, spanning across various research areas, such as engineering …

A fully polymerized (cured) thermoset is no longer capable of flow like a thermoplastic to be
recycled and reprocessed into a new object. Develo** repairable, malleable and …

Reversible covalent polymers are able to change their bond arrangement and structure via
reversible reaction triggered by external stimuli including heating, light and pH, while …

Dynamic covalent polymer networks have long been recognized. With the initial focus on the
unintended impact of dynamic covalent linkages on the viscoelasticity of commercial …

Conventional epoxy polymers are constructed by petro-based resources that are toxic and
nonrenewable, and their permanent cross-links make them difficult to be reprocessed …

Vitrimers are cross-linked polymer networks containing linkages that undergo thermally
activated, associative exchange reactions, such that the cross-link density and overall …
