내용
The synthesis and characterization of poly-(phenylene polysulfide) networks (PSNs) with controlled average sulfur ranks, from elemental sulfur (ES) and pdiiodobenzene (DIB), are investigated. The covalent polysulfide linkages in the PSNs also exhibit dynamic behaviors under ultraviolet (UV) or thermal treatment, thus, enabling self-healing and reprocessing of the films when scratched and broken, respectively. These PSNs possess intrinsic near-infrared (NIR)-induced photothermal conversion properties for spatiotemporal control of their plasticity and elasticity. The NIR-controllable plasticity and elasticity of the PSNs enable versatile shape manipulation of 3D multi-shape memory structures, including building block assembly, reconfiguration, shape fixing/recovery, and repair.
