Semibatch monomer addition as a general method to tune and enhance the mechanics of polymer networks via loop-defect control
Controlling the molecular structure of amorphous cross-linked polymeric materials is a longstanding challenge. Herein, we disclose a general strategy for precise tuning of loop defects in covalent polymer gel networks. This "loop control" is achieved through a simple semibatch monomer addi...
