echanical twinning changes atomic, molecular, and crystal orientations along with directions of anisotropic properties of crystalline materials in keeping single crystallinity in each domain. However, such deformability has been less studied in brittle organic crystals despite their remarkable anisotropic functions. Herein we demonstrate direction-dependent mechanical twinning showing superelasticity in a direction and ferroelasticity in other two directions in a single crystal of 1,3-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)urea. The crystal can undergo stepwise twinning and ferroelastically forms various shapes with multiple domains oriented toward different directions, affording a crystal showing superelasticity to multiple directions. Such adaptability and shape recoverability achieved in a ferroelastic and superelastic single crystal at ambient condition are of great importance in future applications of organic crystals as mechanical materials such as in soft robotics.
