Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Gels have been anticipated as tissue-like functional materials, but generally they are mechanically too weak to be applied widely. On the other hand, recently our group has proposed "sacrificial bond principle", where toughness of gels can be effectively improved by introducing weak and brittle bonds into soft and stretchable networks. In this project, we have created a series of extremely tough gels using this principle, e.g., variants of double network gels featuring covalent sacrificial bonds, polyampholyte gels containing ionic sacrificial bonds, and phase-separated polyacrylamide gels exhibiting super toughness based on solvophobic sacrificial bonds. We have also succeeded in adding functions corresponding to chemical species of sacrificial bonds to the tough gels, e.g., self-healing properties to polyampholyte gels and bioactivity to double network gels containing biopolymers. Through these studies, we have confirmed generality and diversity of sacrificial bond principle.
