Abstract

Abstract: Supramolecular polymer networks (SPNs) are a class of functional systems formed by cross-linking polymers through dynamic and reversible non-covalent interactions. Their unique structures have driven the development of various functional materials. As an important branch, fluorescent supramolecular polymer networks (FSPNs) significantly expand the variety and functional dimensions of polymer materials by ingeniously combining the dynamic nature of non-covalent interactions with the rich photophysical properties of fluorophores. These systems exhibit broad application prospects in fields such as information storage materials, chemical sensing, and optoelectronic functional materials. Herein, this review summarized the research progress of FSPNs in the past five years, taking the types of non-covalent interactions as the main thread, and looks forward to their future development directions. This review aims to systematically summarize the preparation strategies and application status in this field, providing references for an in-depth understanding of FSPNs and offering valuable insights for the design of advanced fluorescent materials and multifunctional polymer materials.
