Thermoset materials comprise a significant proportion of high-performance plastics due to
their shape permanence and excellent thermal and mechanical properties. However, these …

The transfer of vitrimer concept to diene-rubber materials can enable these thermosets with
thermo-activated malleability and reprocessability. However, there are still significant gaps …

Turning thermosets into fully sustainable materials requires utilization of biobased raw
materials and design for easy recyclability. Here, dynamic covalent chemistry for fabrication …

Catalytic control of bond exchange reactions enables healing of cross-linked polymer
materials under a wide range of conditions. The healing capability at high temperatures is …

Vitrimer epoxy, capable of stress‐relaxation, has gathered attention for its ability to counter
the brittleness and rigidity of thermosets. However, to date, only two strategies are proposed …

The reversible and click nature of Diels–Alder (DA) reactions has made them ideal
candidates to design materials with nonconventional properties. Most commonly, the …

Thermosets present sustainability challenges that could potentially be addressed through
the design of deconstructable variants with tunable properties; however, the combinatorial …

Covalent adaptable networks (CANs), which can reconfigure on-demand under photo-or
thermal stimuli, have recently been pursued as an alternative to the traditional thermosetting …

The development of chemically recyclable polymers serves as an attractive approach to
address the global plastic pollution crisis. Monomer design principle is the key to achieving …

Conventional polyurethane (PU) thermosets are built by nonrenewable petrifaction
resources and are burdensome to be recycled, reprocessed, and reshaped in virtue of their …
