Epoxy resin thermosets (ERTs) are an important class of polymeric materials. However, owing to their highly cross-linked nature, they suffer from poor recyclability, which contributes unacceptable level environmental pollution. There is a clear need for the design inherently recyclable ERTs that based on renewable resources. We present synthesis and closed-loop recycling fully lignocellulose-derivable epoxy (DGF/MBCA), prepared dimethyl ester 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (DMFD), 4,4'-methylenebis(cyclohexylamine) (MBCA), glycidol, displays excellent thermomechanical properties (a glass transition temperature 170°C, storage modulus at 25°C 1.2 gigapascals). Notably, material undergoes methanolysis in absence any catalyst, regenerating 90% original DMFD. The diamine MBCA glycidol can subsequently be reformed by acetolysis. Application DGF/MBCA plant fiber composites demonstrated.

Two new vitrimeric materials have been studied for potential additive manufacturing applications such as 3D-printing. A monomer containing disulfide bonds and β-hydroxyesters was easily synthesized from two low-cost commercially available reagents. Another disulfide-containing comparison purposes. Materials were prepared through a UV-light radical polymerization of methacrylates. The addition reactive diluents poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (PEGMA) ethylene glycol phenyl (EGPMA) necessary to achieve suitable viscosity the curing well their printability. process controlled by FTIR. Thermomechanical properties investigated means DMTA analysis revealing near-ambient Tg values. Stress relaxation tests revealed that both capable relax 63% initial stress in less than 10 min at 110 °C. recyclability achieved, mechanical thermomechanical recycled samples compared virgin ones great recovery properties. Finally, Digital Light Processing (DLP) technique used print complex structures with high resolution highlighting these 3D printing.

Abstract Concerns about the effect on environment and non-renewable nature of plastics have sparked a substantial field study towards creation recyclable polymers. Vitrimers are potential class reusable polymers that recently attracted lot interest. Like conventional thermosets in strength, durability, chemical resistance, these materials offer added benefit being at end their useful life. Their structure, which includes dynamic covalent crosslinks to provide stability while enabling reprocessing, is credited with this special characteristic.
