Romove boldface from chapter names of appendices in toc Latex

Question

I want to unbold the chapter name of the appendices in the toc, and only keep the appendix title/numbering bold. For example: "Appendix A supplementary materials for chapter 5". I used the solution from here Removing boldface from appendix chapters in TOC. I thought I could apply the unbold function to titletoc, but it doesn't work.
documentclass{book}

usepackage[titletoc,title]{appendix}

usepackage{etoolbox}
makeatletter
g@addto@macroappendices{%
  addtocontents{titletoc}{protectpatchcmd{protectl@chapter}{bfseries}{}{}{}}
}
makeatother

begin{document}
tableofcontents
begin{appendices}

chapter{Supplementary materials for Chapter 5}
chapter{Supplementary materials for Chapter 6}

end{appendices}
end{document}
