The study investigates the thermal, kinetic, and dielectric properties of a novel methacrylate polymer synthesized from naphthol-containing cinnamic acid derivative. Notably, glass transition temperature (Tg) polymer, crucial parameter for amorphous polymers, was found to be significantly higher than traditional owing presence naphthol group within structure. research also delves into thermal stability activation energy using analysis techniques. Additionally, homopolymer were explored with focus on temperature-dependent changes in constant its behavior varying frequencies.

Abstract Only a small proportion of global plastic waste is recycled, which most mechanically recycled into lower quality materials. The alternative, chemical recycling, enables renewed production pristine materials, but generally comes at high energy cost, particularly for processes like pyrolysis. This review focuses on light-driven approaches chemically recycling and upcycling waste, with emphasis reduced consumption selective transformations not achievable heat-driven methods.

Abstract Photocatalytic upcycling and depolymerization of vinyl polymers have emerged as promising strategies to combat plastic pollution promote a circular economy. This mini review critically summarizes current developments in the degradation including polystyrene poly(meth)acrylates. Of these material classes, polymethacrylates possess unique possibility undergo photocatalytic back monomer under thermodynamically favourable conditions, thus presenting significant advantages over traditional thermal strategies. Our perspective on formidable challenges potential future directions are also discussed.

In this work, we achieved a triggering degradation of polymers composed carbon-carbon (C-C) bonded backbone without relying on introduction labile heteroatom-based bond. The crucial point for the achievement is using vinyl ether (VE) as comonomer in radical copolymerization (meth)acrylate carbon-hydrogen (C-H) bonds active photocatalyzed hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) triggers pendant. Interestingly, methyl methacrylate (MMA)-n-butyl (NBVE) copolymer underwent acetonitrile presence benzophenone (Ph2 CO) under UV irradiation at 80 °C. did not take place, when any one UV, Ph2 CO, heat, and NBVE unit was removed or HAT-active solvent such toluene 1,4-dioxane used. These control experiments strongly supported HAT-triggering degradation. Furthermore, behaviors copolymers with other ethers tert-butyl isopropenyl indicated that C-H bond neighboring to oxygen pendant mainly responsible trigger leading also demonstrated even acrylate-based copolymer.

Topology significantly impacts polymer properties and applications. Hyperbranched polymers (HBPs) synthesized via atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) using inimers typically exhibit broad molecular weight distributions limited control over branching. Alternatively, copolymerization of inibramers (IB), such as α-chloro/bromo acrylates with vinyl monomers, yields HBPs precise uniform Herein, we described the synthesis hydrophilic HB polyacrylates in water by copolymerizing a water-soluble IB, oligo(ethylene oxide) methyl ether 2-bromoacrylate (OEOBA), various acrylate comonomers. Visible-light-mediated controlled branching (CRBP) dual catalysis eosin Y (EY) copper complexes resulted weights (Mn = 38 000 to 170 000) degrees (2%–24%). Furthermore, optimized conditions enabled successful application OEOBA synthesize linear-hyperbranched block copolymers hyperbranched protein hybrids (HB-PPH), demonstrating its potential advance complex macromolecular architecture under environmentally benign conditions. Copolymerization methacrylate monomer, (OEOMA500), inibramer was accompanied fragmentation β-carbon C–C bond scission subsequent growth chains from fragments. computational studies investigating depending on IB comonomer structure supported experimental observations. This work expands toolkit for CRBP highlights critical influence reaction outcomes.

Polymeric materials have become indispensable due to their versatility and low cost, yet environmental impact presents a significant global challenge. Traditional chemical recycling methods typically rely on heat as stimulus; for instance, pyrolysis is popular methodology which faces limitations high energy consumption, product selectivity, the generation of undesirable byproducts. In response, recent advances in promotion depolymerization degradation through alternative stimuli such light, electrochemistry, mechanical force, shown promising potential more efficient selective polymer breakdown, yielding either starting monomers or valuable small molecules. This perspective explores key examples these emerging strategies, highlighting improve upon current protocols offer pathways under milder conditions, while identifying challenges that future research must address translate chemistry into viable broadly applicable strategies.
