Photoresponsive polymers for carbodiimide-fueled transient hydrogels†
Light- and carbodiimide-responsive hydrogels were synthesized. An “AND” gate was developed using ortho-nitrobenzyl (ONB) protected carboxylic acids in the polymer backbone. Crosslinking was only realized in the presence of both UV stimulus to photocleave the ONB group and carbodiimide fuels to induce anhydride bonds. In the presence of water, the anhydride bonds eventually hydrolyze to carboxylic acids and the system returns to the solution state. The mechanical properties of the out-of-equilibrium hydrogels were investigated using oscillatory rheology to examine the effects of deprotection efficiency, carbodiimide concentration and chain architecture on the hydrogels’ moduli and decrosslinking time. Higher moduli and longer decrosslinking times were found with increased carbodiimide concentration and deprotection efficiency. These discoveries unveil new possibilities for photoresponsive chemically fueled soft materials.
