摘要:The interplay between polymer science and supramolecular chemistry leads to formation of various polymeric supramolecular systems. Polymeric supramolecular systems may be of abundant supramolecular structures, thus endowed with many fascinating properties and functions such as reversibility, adaptiveness, self-healing, and stimuli-responsiveness owing to the dynamic nature of noncovalent interactions. This review is aimed to summarize some research progresses on polymeric supramolecular systems in China, including mesogen-jacketed liquid crystalline polymers, non-covalent connected micelles, supramolecular self-assemblies from amphiphilic hyperbranched polymers, layer-by-layer assemblies, supramolecular polymers from controllable fabrication, and artificial molecular chaperones from controllable assembly.
摘要:Optoelectronic polymers possess delocalized π electron skeletons that enable various optoelectronic properties and applications. As a frontier research directions of polymer science, optoelectronic polymers have attracted wide attention because of their fascinating properties such as low-cost synthesis, light-weight and easy manufacture of thin film devices by solution cast or printing technologies. These features have endowed optoelectronic polymers with great potential applications in the field of organic optoelectronic devices, and also have motivated chemists to construct a variety of optoelectronic polymers. This review article aims to summarize the important research progresses of optoelectronic polymers in China, including the molecular engineering, novel and controllable polymerization, regulation on properties, various aplications and theoretic studies of optoelectronic conjugated polymers.

摘要:This paper made a survey on the research field of polymer physics and characterization achieved by the Chinese mainland since reform and opening-up of China 40 years ago. The examples were selected for the brief introduction from three aspects: the breakthrough in concepts, the development in theories, and the innovation in techniques. It intended to highlight the creativity of modern Chinese scientists in this fundamental research field, in order to encourage young scientists or scholars to take the bigger challenges in scientific research, and to make more contributions in national economy and social development.

摘要:Eco-polymers are a kind of sustainable polymers with low environmental loads through their whole life cycles. As polymers respording to the call of environment, eco-polymers were born in the 1990s while the polymer industry in the world developed very fast. Now, such research grows into a hot point in polymer science. Employing monomers from renewable resources (not limited to renewable resources), much great progress has been made in the past three decades in China, most of which started from highly active and selective catalyst design to controllable polymerization method, till performance adjustment and functionalization, constituting a major force to drive the fast development of eco-polymers in the world. In this review, we try to summarized the fundamental contributions from Chinese scientists in eco-polymers, such as poly(lactic acid)s, polyhydroxyalkanoates, amino acid based polymers, poly(1,4-dioxan-2-one), CO2 copolymers, bio-based elastomers, 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid based polyesters, and cellulose derivatives, and provide a perspective on the future of these polymers.

摘要:Polymer synthetic chemistry is a scientific discipline which mainly studies molecular design, synthesis and modification of high molecular weight compounds. It provides indispensable materials that guarantee social progress, improvement of human living standards, and national security. Since the founding of The People’s Republic of China 70 years ago, Chinese scholars have made significant contributions to the development of this field. Important achievements include, but not limited to, the design and synthesis of new monomers and polymers, development of highly efficient and environmentally benign catalysts and new polymerization reactions, optimization of key synthetic pathways, and establishment of relationships of new structures and properties. The research and development of synthetic polymer chemistry in China were reviewed, and the broad prospects of the development of various polymerization reactions, control of polymer topology as well as design, synthesis and polymerization of monomers from biomass sources were prospected.
