Abstract:
To address the wettability-durability contradiction and the underexplored role of ionic species as bonding enhancers in polymerizable deep eutectic solvent (PDES)-based anti-fog coatings, we construct a covalently anchored triple-crosslinked network integrating covalent, coordination, and hydrogen bonds, which achieves rapid water spreading, high modulus, long-term durability, synergizing transparency and hydrophilicity.
