Guest-host assembly and recovery mechanism. (a) Macroscopic image of the injection of a guest-host (GH) hydrogel into PBS demonstrates the injectability and rapid recovery of the GH hydrogels, scale bar 500 μm. (b) Strain sweep with G’ (filled symbols) and G” (open symbols) shows the shear yielding of GH hydrogels with increasing strain, (c) Corresponding recovery of a GH hydrogel undergoing cyclic deformation of 1% (low, non-shaded areas) and 100% (high, shaded areas) strain at 10 Hz with G’ (purple continuous line) and G” (purple dotted line).
