Abstract
4D Printable Mutifunctional Vitrimers In article number 2103682, Sungmin Park, Yong Seok Kim, Dong‐Gyun Kim, and co‐workers develop a 4D printable vitrimer that is translated from a commercial poly‐ε‐caprolactone (PCL) resin. The developed material exhibits combined characteristics of vitrimers and semi‐crystalline PCL, allowing for self‐repairing, welding, recycling, as well as thermadapt shape memory effects. Furthermore, active dynamic network rearrangement capabilities of vitrimers permits applying various types of fused‐deposition‐modeling‐based printing methods. [Image: see text]
