Abstract
In this work, we briefly review a recently developed model to study the diffusion and rheology of associating polymers. The model describes successfully the experimental data, including an unexpected phenomenological superdiffusive scaling at distances which are larger than the molecular size. The understanding of the dynamics of associating polymers can have a big impact in applications such as biocompatible gels or self-healing materials.
