Supramolecular Interface Engineering via Interdiffusion for Reusable and Dismantlable Polymer Adhesion (Adv. Mater. 6/2026)

Polymer Adhesion The formation of host-guest complexes at polymer interfaces was regulated by thermal and chemical stimuli, enabling repeated and easily dismantlable adhesion. Neutron reflectometry revealed that reversible bond rearrangement at the interface suppresses polymer interdiffusion, resulting in a thinner interfacial width and controllable interfacial dynamics.
