Pseudorotaxane polymer
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-009644
A macromolecular pseudorotaxane where either the macrocyclic component, the threading component, or both, are polymeric. This architecture involves the non-covalent threading of polymer chains through macrocycles or vice versa, forming a supramolecular polymer. These materials can exhibit unique mechanical and responsive properties due to their dynamic, non-covalent linkages.
