description | Abstract Molecular design is crucial for endowing conjugated polymers (CPs) with unique properties and enhanced electronic performance. Introducing Hydrogen‐bonding (H‐bonding) into CPs has been a broadly exploited, yet still emerging strategy capable of tuning a range of properties encompassing solubility, crystallinity, electronic properties, solid‐state morphology, and stability, as well as mechanical properties and self‐healing properties. Different H‐bonding groups can be utilized to tailor CPs properties based on the applications of interest. This review provides an overview of classes of H‐bonding CPs (assorted by the different H‐bond functional groups), the synthetic methods to introduce the corresponding H‐bond functional groups and the impact of H‐bonding in CPs on corresponding electronic and materials properties. Recent advances in addressing the trade‐off between electronic performance and mechanical durability are also highlighted. Furthermore, insights into future directions and prospects for H‐bonded CPs are discussed. |
