Transforming how plastics are made, unmade, and remade through innovative research and
diverse partnerships that together foster environmental stewardship is critically important to …

Conventional thermosets are infusible and insoluble covalently cross-linked polymers that
are difficult to recycle and reuse when discarded. Recent years have witnessed the …

The importance of stereochemistry to the function of molecules is generally well understood.
However, to date, control over stereochemistry and its potential to influence properties of the …

With increasing interest in develo** sustainable polymers for a broad range of
applications, isosorbide has emerged as an attractive renewable feedstock for high …

Conventional thermosets, widely used in composites, coatings, electronic packing materials,
etc., are typically made of non-sustainable fossil resources and cannot be recycled under …

Renewable and sustainable thermosets with thermo-mechanical properties that are
equivalent to, or better than, those of petroleum-derived commercial incumbents are …

Carbon fiber (CF) reinforced polyurethane (PU) composites have attracted increasing
attention in recent years. It is still a challenge to recycle the CF reinforced composites, and …

The remarkable elasticity and tensile strength found in natural elastomers are challenging to
mimic. Synthetic elastomers typically feature covalently cross‐linked networks (rubbers), but …

Conventional thermoset coatings cannot be easily repaired and removed owing to their
highly crosslinked structure. The investigation of repairable or removable coatings has been …

Plastics are indispensable in modern society, but are non-sustainable resources, releasing
hazardous chemicals during their service life, and post-disposal issues make traditional …
