Bottlebrush polymers (BBPs) are a type of comb-like macromolecule with densely grafted
polymeric sidechains attached to the polymer backbones, and many intriguing properties …

Depolymerization of vinyl polymers into monomers is energy-intensive due to the high
thermal and chemical stability of the backbone. Depolymerizations of methacrylic polymers …

Ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) mediated by Grubbs' third-generation
catalyst [G3,(H2IMes)(Cl) 2 (pyr) 2RuCHPh] is widely used to make bottlebrush polymers by …

In this work, we demonstrate the controlled synthesis of graft and branched copolymers
using one-pot (batch) or one-pass (flow) processes without intermediate purification. The …

Exploring novel healing mechanisms is a constant impetus for the development of self-
healing materials. Herein, we find that side-chain interlocking of bottlebrush polymers can …

Softness and firmness are opposing traits that synergistically define the elastic response of
biological systems. Currently, no single class of synthetic materials including elastomers and …

Polymer networks containing bottlebrush chains are emerging materials with exceptionally
soft and highly tunable mechanical properties. However, such materials have not been …

The present review is devoted to the search for the possible methods to synthesize siloxane
molecular brushes (MBs). Wide diversity of chemical nature and architectures offered by …

There is an increasing demand for soft-electronic devices. Such devices require adhesives
that demonstrate appropriate stretching and recovery to support the assembly of various …

Liquid electrolytes used in lithium-ion batteries suffer from leakage, flammability, and lithium
dendrites, making polymer electrolyte a potential alternative. Herein, a series of ABA triblock …
