Preface
There is a long history of the use of both naturally occurring polymers and synthetic polymers culminating in our current deep understanding of supramolecular polymers. In the 1500s, British explorers discovered that Mayan children were playing with rubber balls made from local trees and, 150 years ago, the first synthetic polymer was made by Wesley Hyatt. He treated cellulose with camphor to create a synthetic ivory to meet the needs of the then rapidly growing billiard enterprise. This year, synthetic polymer chemistry celebrates its 100th birthday, marked by when Hermann Staudinger published his then highly controversial proposal that polymers are indeed long chains, which are formed from repeating molecular units by covalent bonds. Throughout the last century, polymer chemistry has evolved tremendously not only with respect to the design and synthesis of tailor‐made architectures but also concerning the wide range of utilitarian applications to be found in our daily lives. By the 1970s, the use of polymer/plastic surpassed
