‘Click’ reactions are a unique class of versatile synthetic tools
used in organic and polymer chemistry to develop new materials. The
high efficiency of the click reactions, combined with their easy and
straightforward execution, have made them an inevitable tool for the
development of a variety of advanced polymer materials with
tailor-made architectures and stimuli-responsive features. This book
aims to give a comprehensive overview and introduction on the use of
‘click’ chemistry in polymer science, including ‘click,’
‘click-like,’ and reversible ‘click’ (or ‘un-click’)
approaches in the design of macromolecules. Moreover, it will outline
recent progress in utilizing different ‘click chemistry’ in the
development of functional polymer materials for various applications,
such as self-healing, hydrophobic, shape-memory, and bio-based
materials. Written and edited by leading experts in the field,
chapters cover the use of different ‘click’ reactions, like
azide-alkyne, Diels-Alder, Alder-ene, thiol-X, electrophilic
substitution, and trans (esterification/amination) reactions, in
polymer science. It will also cover the concept of ‘trans-click’
reactions, which have come to the foreground on account of improving
the exchangeable efficiency of covalent bonds in covalent adaptable
polymer materials. Recognizing the present state-of-the-art, this book
will be a suitable reference handbook with a valuable resource of
information for students of all levels, for learning and teaching
endeavors, and for researchers and scientists working on the next
generation of advanced polymeric materials.
