Materials with hierarchical architectures that combine soft and hard material domains exhibit superior mechanical properties. These designs necessitate careful control of the manufacturing process to manipulate multiscale organization.
We utilize frontal polymerization dynamics to autonomously create patterned crystalline domains. This technique introduces a rapid and dissipative processing method that provides significant control over material characteristics by altering the initial fabrication conditions.
