In the last decades, Covalent Adaptable Networks (CAN) appeared as an innovative
polymer family, able to bridge the gap between thermoplastics and thermosets. CAN rely on …

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 …

Epoxy vitrimers with dynamic covalent networks enable reprocessing and recycling of epoxy
thermosets. However, achieving high mechanical performance remains a challenge. In this …

As the currently predominant thermoset plastic, epoxy thermoset is widely used in composite
materials, electronic packaging materials, coatings and adhesives. The rapid rise in epoxy …

Thermosets have many advantages such as excellent mechanical properties, dimensional
stability, and chemical and environmental resistance, but suffer from unsustainability …

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 …

Dynamic bonds introduce unique properties such as self‐healing, recyclability, shape
memory, and malleability to polymers. Significant efforts have been made to synthesize a …

Traditional epoxy thermosets have been extensively used in many fields, including the field
of carbon fiber composite materials, which is favored by a large number of researchers. But …

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

Epoxidized soybean oil (ESO)-derived epoxy thermosets are usually limited by their poor
mechanical properties and non-reprocessability. Herein, we report sustainable epoxy …
