Mechanically Robust, Reprocessable, and Light-Controlled Healable Solvent-Free Lignin-Containing Polyurethane Elastomers Based on Dynamic Phenol-Carbamate Network

Macromolecules, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: Jan. 9, 2025

In this study, we introduce an innovative one-step, solvent-free approach for preparing lignin-containing polyurethane elastomers (LPUes) with nanomicro phase-separated structure and dynamic dual-cross-linking networks comprising both phenol-carbamate bonds (PCBs) hydrogen bonds. This distinctive structural design imparted exceptional mechanical properties to the LPUes. The sample containing 22.9 wt % phenolized lignin exhibited tensile strength of 44.6 MPa, elongation at break 714.6%, toughness 148.0 MJ/m3. abundance PCBs also conferred remarkable reprocessing capabilities, these LPUes retaining over 98% 94.4% after two hot-pressing cycles. Moreover, incorporation endowed photothermal properties, facilitating efficient light-controlled self-healing shape-memory functionalities. work offers pathway harmonize thermal adaptability in development sustainable high-performance LPUes, thereby opening their avenues diverse potential applications.

Lignin‐Based Vitrimer for High‐Resolution and Full‐Component Rapidly Recycled Liquid Metal Printed Circuit

Advanced Functional Materials, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: April 14, 2025

Abstract Room‐temperature liquid metals (RTLMs) exhibit inherent fluidity, metallic conductivity, remarkable stability, and recyclability, which indicate significant potential for applications in improving the efficiency of electronics recycling reducing costs. However, low viscosity RTLMs their poor interfacial adhesion to substrates typically necessitate utilization intricate fabrication processes. Here, a viscosity‐tunable, photothermal repairable, full‐component recyclable eutectic gallium–indium/epoxy‐modified lignin/polyethylene glycol diacid/ethylene vitrimer (EGaIn‐LPEv) is presented printed circuits. The system displays good stability tunable at room temperature because ultra‐high reactive site content modified lignin dual dynamic bonding by introduction ethylene glycol. EGaIn‐LPEv‐based circuit exhibits high resolution full component recovery up 7.6 µm 98.3 wt.%, respectively. As principal component, not only enhances system's green credentials but also endows it with an efficient repairable capability. reconnection damaged can be achieved 15 s through 808 nm infrared activation. This study opens new avenue development manufacturing processes sustainable application advanced, high‐resolution, fully recycled electronic devices.
