Dangling bond formation for COF materials in a rational manner is an enormous challenge, especially through post-treatment which is a facile strategy while has not been reported yet. In this work, a "chemical scissor" strategy is proposed for the first time to rationally design dangling bonds in COF materials. It is found that Zn coordination in post-metallization of TDCOF can act as an "inducer" which elongates the target bond and facilitates its fracture in hydrolyzation reactions to create dangling bonds. The number of dangling bonds is well-modulated by controlling the post-metallization time. Zn-TDCOF-12 shows one of the highest sensitivities to NO in all reported chemiresistive gas sensing materials operating under visible light and room temperature. This work opens an avenue to rationally design a dangling bond in COF materials, which could increase the active sites and improve the mass transport in COFs to remarkably promote their various chemical applications.

Artificial synapses for neuromorphic computing have been increasingly highlighted, owing to their capacity to emulate brain activity. In particular, solid-state electrolyte-gated electrodes have garnered significant attention because they enable the simultaneous achievement of outstanding synaptic characteristics and mass productivity by adjusting proton migration. However, the inevitable interface traps restrict the protons at the channel-electrolyte interface, resulting in the deterioration of synaptic characteristics.

In short-carbon-fiber-reinforced polyamide 66 articles shaped by 3D printing (3D-SCFRPA66), the interfaces between printed layers are often susceptible to damage, and the composite is excessively brittle. Therefore, a novel treatment for 3D-printed short-carbon-fiber-reinforced polyamide (3D-SCFRPA66) using homogeneous low-potential electron beam irradiation (HLEBI) to enhance tensile properties was investigated. In 3D-SCFRPA66 samples, ductility was measured based on the following parameters: strain at tensile strength (corresponding to homogeneous deformation) () and resistance energy to homogeneous deformation, a measure of toughness (), which were both substantially increased.

Shear thinning of associative polymers is tied to bond breakage under deformation and retraction of dangling chains, as predicted by transient network theories. However, an in-depth understanding of the molecular mechanisms is limited by our ability to measure the molecular states of the polymers during deformation. Herein, utilizing a custom-built rheo-fluorescence setup, bond dissociation in model end-linked associative polymers is quantified in real time with nonlinear shear deformation based on a fluorescence quench transition when phenanthroline ligands bind with Ni.

Nanoconfined water exhibits astonishing properties that offer new opportunities in physics, biology and technology like energy-storage applications. Here we study such nanoconfined water using molecular dynamics simulations to elucidate the structure and dynamics of water monolayers in graphene-based slit pores. The significant population of dangling (or free) O-H bonds pointing toward the two confining walls, leads to topological frustration in the hydrogen bond network.

Carboxymethyl cellulose nanofiber (CMCF) forms mechanically strong hydrogels via freeze cross-linking. We investigated the vapor swelling and drying processes of the freeze cross-linked CMCF hydrogels using infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. From the shifts of the O-H and C=O stretching modes, the structural changes of water and carboxymethyl celluloses (CMC) were analyzed.
