The research aims to create durable and reprocessable covalent adaptable networks using specific polymer techniques.
Developed covalent adaptable networks through reactive processing of polyethylene and ethylene-based copolymers.
Incorporated an azine-based dynamic covalent cross-linker in the processing.
Created creep-resistant and extrudable polyolefin networks.
Achieved recyclability of the produced networks.
Abstract
Reprocessable and creep-resistant covalent adaptable networks were produced via reactive processing of polyethylene and ethylene-based copolymers with an azine-based dynamic covalent cross-linker.
