Abstract

Abstract : Lamellar Frameworks In article number 2107941, Runlai Li, Qiang Fu, and co‐workers propose a method to thin down commodity polymers into lamellar thin frameworks (LTF) with a square‐meter large area. Interactions between molecules are regulated by multistep processing for ordered molecular alignment. The prepared new structures (LTF and shish‐network), properties (ultrahigh transparency and specific stiffness), and measurements may promote fundamental research and novel practical applications of commodity polymers.
