Epoxy resins (EPs), accounting for about 70% of the thermosetting resin market, have been
recognized as the most widely used thermosetting resins in the world. Nowadays, 90% of …

From cars to airplanes, from household appliances to indoor ornaments, from biomedical
devices to factory equipment, epoxy resins have been deeply rooted in modern society. But …

Reversible covalent polymers are able to change their bond arrangement and structure via
reversible reaction triggered by external stimuli including heating, light and pH, while …

Malleable thermosets are crosslinked polymers containing dynamic covalent bonds, which
can be reversibly cleaved and reformed. They have attracted considerable attention in …

Fiber-reinforced polymer composites (FRPCs) made of a “dynamic” epoxy resin possess
good mechanical properties, while showing reprocessability, reparability and recyclability …

With large quantities of waste carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites
generated, the development of recycling routes for CFRP composites have been driven by …

Compared with thermoplastic polymers, thermoset polymers are difficult to recycle because
they can not be remolded once cured and often do not decompose under mild conditions …

Both environmental and economic factors have driven the development of recycling routes
for the increasing amount of composite waste generated. This paper presents a new …

A carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) is a structural composite widely used in
automobiles, the aerospace industry, sporting goods, etc. because of its high strength-to …

This featured article brings together recent advances in the field of smart polymers systems
which incorporate reversible crosslinks based on aromatic disulfides. The reversibility of …
