Front Cover : In article number 2000450 by Harald Rupp and Wolfgang H. Binder, the preparation and characterization of mechanoresponsive, 3D‐printed composites are reported using a dual‐printing setup for both, liquid dispensing and fused‐deposition‐modeling. Printability and postprinting activity of the latent mechanophores and the fluorogenic “click”‐components are demonstrated. The low‐molecular weight mechanophores bearing the alkyl‐C11 chains display the best printability, yielding mechanochemical response after the 3D‐printing process.
