Supramolecular polymers are polymeric arrays of monomeric units that are held together by highly directional and reversible noncovalent interactions, resulting in polymeric properties in solution and bulk. It is an interdisciplinary direction of polymer science and supramolecular science. In contrast with conventional polymers on the basis of covalent bond, supramolecular polymers have drawn increasing attention because of many fascinating properties such as reversibility, adaptiveness, self-healing, and stimuli-responsiveness owing to the dynamic nature of noncovalent interactions. These attributes have endowed supramolecular polymers with great potential applications in the field of functional materials, and also have motivated chemists to construct a variety of supramolecular polymers and supramolecular polymeric materials. The fabrication of supramolecular polymers and the investigation of functional supramolecular polymers have been a topic of great interest for the scientific communities in China in recent years. This review article is aimed to summarize some research progresses on supramolecular polymers in China, including the design of building blocks and driving forces for the fabrication of supramolecular polymers with high molecular weight, construction of supramolecular polymers with various topologies, new methods for controllable supramolecular polymerization, and functional supramolecular polymers The characteristics, advantages, and potential applications of supramolecular polymers, as well as the comparisons of the structure and properties between the covalent polymers and the supramolecular polymers are also discussed. Although polymer science on the basis of covalent bond has been and will still be the core science in the polymer community, supramolecular polymers based on noncovalent interactions are complementary to traditional polymer science and represent new growth point by marrying supramolecular science with polymer science. Last but not least, with the aim to push forward the studies on supramolecular polymers, more attention should be paid to developing and enriching supramolecular polymer chemistry and physics, the methods for their characterization and special supramolecular polymers with tailor-made molecular architectures and functions.
