多重氢键键合超分子聚合物的受限结晶、多晶态形成与相转变

Supramolecular polymers are a novel class of polymeric materials and their physical properties are determined by both the chain structure and condensed matter structure. Clarifying the principle and mechanism for the formation and manipulation of condensed matter structures in supramolecular polymers are of fundamental importance for the optimization of physical performance and the development of new functions in manufacture and processing. Because of the confinement effects of supramolecular units and the effects of intersegmental interactions, the crystallization behavior of supramolecular polymers is generally different from conventional polymers; it is characteristics of the confined and dynamic process. In this project, we would like to select the supramolecular aliphatic polyesters bonded by multiple hydrogen bonds as a model system and investigate the confined crystallization kinetics, polymorphic phase crystalline formation and transition of supramolecular polymers. Effects of non-covalently bonding manner and interactions between polymer segments on the crystallization kinetics, polymorphic crystalline phase formation and transition of supramolecular polymers will be investigated and the mechanism behind these results will be discussed. The change and transition of chain conformation and microstructure in the nucleation process of supramolecular polymers and their correlations with the interactions between supramolecular motifs will be illustrated. The in-situ and real-time experimental methods to analyze the polymorphic crystallization and phase transition of supramolecular polymers will be established or perfected. This study will establish new methods to control the condensed matter structure and physical performance of supramolecular polymers through the crystallization of chain segments. The mechanistic investigations conducted in this study will help to further understand the principle and theory for the formation and transition of hierarchical condensed matter structure in the polymer system having relatively strong intersegmental interactions and complex chain structures.
