Abstract
Slide-ring topological gels with mobile cross-linking units are a new class of soft materials that exhibit distinct features differing from those of conventional chemically or physically cross-linked gels. Photoresponsive behavior arising from the dynamic nature of the cross-linkers is demonstrated for a slide-ring gel prepared by adding azobenzene units to the mobile α-cyclodextrin units of a poly(ethylene oxide)-based polyrotaxane (see figure).
