However, the molecular-level mechanisms underlying these dynamic functionalities remain insufficiently understood. In this study, we develop a large-scale molecular dynamics framework to model the curing and bond exchange processes in vitrimers synthesized from diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) and 4-aminophenyl disulfide (4-AFD). A custom curing algorithm enables the construction of crosslinked networks with controlled crosslink densities (ρ<sub>cl</sub>), allowing us to systematically evaluate the impact of network topology on mechanical and thermal properties. Our simulations reveal that increasing ρ<sub>cl</sub> enhances the glass transition temperature, elastic modulus, and ultimate strength, due to reduced segmental mobility and a denser network structure. Crucially, we show that the incorporation of dynamic disulfide bonds enables thermally activated bond exchange reactions that effectively heal both nanovoids and preexisting cracks. The self-healed vitrimer recovers over 95% of its original mechanical performance, demonstrating the efficacy of network reconfiguration at the atomic scale. These findings provide mechanistic insights into the interplay between network architecture and vitrimer functionalities that are inaccessible by experiment alone. Our computational framework offers predictive capabilities for guiding material design and optimizing vitrimer performance for recyclable, reprocessable, and damage-tolerant polymer systems.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":315,"journal":{"name":"European Polymer Journal","volume":"239 ","pages":"Article 114273"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2025-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145046796","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since poloxamer-based systems remain liquid at room temperature, they can potentially be administered with greater convenience. When exposed to increased temperatures, their unique thermoresponsive behavior induces micellar self-assembly, followed by sol-to-gel transition at physiological temperatures, enabling sustained drug release.

The lowest polymerization temperature of 193 °C was observed in CH-pga and CH-ffa. The bio-based benzoxazines possessed lower polymerization temperature than synthetic amine substituted benzoxazines. In contrary, the thermal stability of the synthetic amine substituted polybenzoxazines was found to be greater than that of bio-based polybenzoxazines. Poly(CH-pga) showed highest thermal stability with a char yield of 39 % at 850 °C exhibiting highest theoretically calculated limiting oxygen index (LOI) and heat resistance index (HRI) values. CH-oda possessed highest antimicrobial activity of 55 % and 90 % bacterial growth inhibition against <em>S.aureus</em> and <em>E.coli</em> respectively. CH-oda showed least toxicity towards L929 cell line showing highest IC50 value of 171 µg/mL when compared to rest of the monomers. Poly(CH-oda) exhibited highest water contact angle of 143° and corrosion inhibition efficiency of 99.89 % which was further validated by density functional theory (DFT) studies. From the molecular docking, CH-a showed the best docking score and binding affinity to the epidermal growth factor receptor (eGFR) ascertaining the presence of higher anticancer activity. Also, the absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity (ADMET) parameters have been satisfied by all the benzoxazines showing drug likeliness. Therefore, from the current study experimental data suggests that bio-based benzoxazines possess better hydrophobicity, anticorrosion property, antimicrobial activity and low toxicity when compared to synthetic amine based benzoxazines. Whereas, both the series of benzoxazines exhibit good anticancer and drug likeliness property as per docking studies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":315,"journal":{"name":"European Polymer Journal","volume":"239 ","pages":"Article 114261"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2025-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145005285","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
