This volume covers experimental and theoretical advances on the
relationship between composition, structure and macroscopic
mechanical properties of novel hydrogels containing dynamic bonds.
The chapters of this volume focus on the control of the mechanical
properties of several recently discovered gels with the design of
monomer composition, chain architecture, type of crosslinking or
internal structure. The gels discussed in the different chapters
have in common the capability to dissipate energy upon deformation,
a desired property for mechanical toughness, while retaining the
ability to recover the properties of the virgin material over time
or to self-heal when put back in contact after fracture. Some
chapters focus on the synthesis and structural aspects while others
focus on properties or modelling at the continuum or mesoscopic
scale. The volume will be of interest to chemists and material
scientists by providing guidelines and general structure-property
considerations to synthesize and develop innovative gels tuned for
applications. In addition it will provide physicists with a better
understanding of the role of weak interactions between molecules
and physical crosslinking on macroscopic dissipative properties and
self-healing or self-recovering properties.
