The development of recyclable plastics is a key research focus in today's world due to their
environmental issues, and non-renewability concerns. Recently, vitrimeric materials have …

Polymer networks built out of dynamic covalent bonds offer the potential to translate the
control and tunability of chemical reactions to macroscopic physical properties. Under …

Abstract Development of closed‐loop chemically recyclable plastics (CCRPs) that can be
widely used in daily life can be a fundamental solution to the global plastic waste crisis …

Chemical recycling of polymers is critical for improving the circular economy of plastics and
environmental sustainability. Traditional thermoset polymers have generally been …

Thermoset elastomers are widely used in industry and frontier research due to their
advantage of mechanical robustness, high thermal/chemical resistance, and good …

The study of synthetic organic polymers rapidly expanded since Staudinger's recognition of
the covalent structure of macromolecules. Today, these materials are far from just an …

The classical division of polymeric materials into thermoplastics and thermosets based on
covalent network structure often implies that these categories are distinct and irreconcilable …

The incorporation of dynamic covalent linkages within and between polymer chains brings
new properties to classical thermosetting polymer formulations, in particular in terms of …

The development of more sustainable materials with a prolonged useful lifetime is a key
requirement for a transition towards a more circular economy. However, polymer materials …

Covalent adaptable networks (CANs) are covalently cross-linked polymers that may be
reshaped via cross-linking and/or strand exchange at elevated temperatures. They …
