New Approaches Towards Highly Stretchable and Self-Healable Conjugated Polymers

共轭材料，特别是半导体聚合物，是一类有趣的化合物，具有广泛的应用。更具体地说，这些材料具有适用于有机电子产品的特性，并且它们还具有高溶解度，允许通过大规模印刷方法进行器件制造和制造。此外，良好的机械和光学性能使半导体聚合物成为开发可拉伸和自修复设备的理想平台，在可穿戴电子和医疗保健领域具有巨大潜力。在大多数有机电子器件中，性能主要由于形态问题而受到限制。鉴于其高结晶度和刚性，共轭聚合物的机械性能必须进行优化，以提高其应变公差和性能。因此，获得可以耐受极端环境条件（应变、穿刺、热等）的有序和纳米结构的共轭聚合物的新方法被认为是一种有效的方法。对于该技术的扩展是非常期望的。

Conjugated materials, especially semiconducting polymers, are an interesting class of compounds for a wide variety of applications. More specifically, these materials have suitable properties for use in organic electronics and they also possess a high solubility that allows for device fabrication and manufacturing via large-scale printing methods. Moreover, good mechanical and optical properties make semiconducting polymers an ideal platform for the development of stretchable and self-healing devices with great potential in wearable electronics and healthcare. In most organic electronic devices, the performance is mainly limited due to morphological issues. Given their high crystallinity and rigidity, the mechanical properties of conjugated polymers have to be optimized in order to increase their strain tolerance and performance. Thus, novel methods to obtain ordered and nanostructured conjugated polymers that can tolerate extreme environmental conditions (strain, puncture, heat, etc.) are highly desirable for the expansion of this technology.
