Abstract
Building macro continuous materials that play an important role in our daily lives directly from powder is in line with the development needs of green chemistry. Powders or particles tend to spontaneously aggregate and fuse to reduce the interfacial energy of the system, but compared to solutions or melts, the molecular motion ability in the solid phase is significantly limited. Inspired by the agglomeration of powder and kneading dough, the introduction of a small amount of water and pressure has enabled the preparation of continuous self-supporting materials based on surfactants, and even the construction of ordered molecular membranes through solid-phase molecular self-assembly. This article summarizes the recent work on the construction of macroscopic materials using molecular motion in solid phase, and mainly introduces its principles, self-healing properties, and application directions, including strain sensing, oil absorption, humidity response, circularly polarized luminescence, etc., and looks forward to the future development space.
期刊介绍:
Current Opinion in Colloid and Interface Science (COCIS) is an international journal that focuses on the molecular and nanoscopic aspects of colloidal systems and interfaces in various scientific and technological fields. These include materials science, biologically-relevant systems, energy and environmental technologies, and industrial applications.
Unlike primary journals, COCIS primarily serves as a guide for researchers, helping them navigate through the vast landscape of recently published literature. It critically analyzes the state of the art, identifies bottlenecks and unsolved issues, and proposes future developments.
Moreover, COCIS emphasizes certain areas and papers that are considered particularly interesting and significant by the Editors and Section Editors. Its goal is to provide valuable insights and updates to the research community in these specialized areas.
