| Abstract: | Visualization of mechanochemical damages, espe-cially for those in the molecular-scale (e.g., bond scission in polymeric materials), is of great industrial and academic significance. Herein, we report a novel strategy for in situ and real-time visualization of mechanochemical damages in hydrogels by utilizing prefluorescent probes via oxygen-relayed free-radical trapping. Double-network (DN) hydrogels that generate numerous mechanoradicals by homolytic bond scission of the brittle first network at large deformation are used as model materials. Theoretical calculation suggests that mechanoradicals generated by the damage of the first network undergo an oxygen-relayed radical-transfer process which can be detected by the prefluor-escent probe through the radical−radical coupling reaction. Such an oxygen-relayed radical-trapping process of the prefluorescent probe exhibits a dramatically enhanced emission, which enables the real-time sensing and visualization of mechanochemical damages in DN hydrogels made from brittle networks of varied chemical structures. To the best of authors’ knowledge, this work is the first report utilizing oxygen as a radical-relaying molecule for visualizing mechanoradical damages in polymer materials. Moreover, this new method based on the probe post-loading is simple and does not introduce any chemical structural changes in the materials, outperforming most previous methods that require chemical incorporation of mechanophores into polymer networks. |
