Covalent adaptable networks (CANs), comprising polymer networks crosslinked by dynamic
covalent bonds (DCBs), have garnered considerable attention as sustainable materials …

Linear chains in thermoplastics make them relatively weak in performance but inherently
weldable and recyclable. By contrast, thermosets with permanently crosslinked networks …

To develop siloxane-containing vitrimers with fast dynamic characteristics, different
mechanistic pathways have been investigated using a range of catalysts. In particular, one …

Dynamic covalent polymer networks provide an interesting solution to the challenging

On‐demand adhesive dismantling has the potential to improve multimaterial product
recycling, but its implementation has been hampered by a critical trade‐off between strong …

Vitrimers are polymer networks with dynamic covalent bonds that allow the network to
reconfigure its connectivity while maintaining a constant number of chemical bonds at all …

Devising energy‐efficient strategies for the depolymerization of plastics and the recovery of
their structural components in high yield and purity is key to a circular plastics economy …

Dynamic covalent networks present a unique opportunity to exert molecular-level control on
macroscopic material properties, by linking their thermal behaviour to the thermodynamics …

Covalent adaptable networks (CAN) emerged as a recent class of polymers that combine
the most interesting advantages of thermosets and thermoplastics. In this frame, combining …

Like any other thermosetting material, polyurethane foams (PUFs) contain permanent cross-
links that hinder their reprocessability and make their recyclability a tedious and …
