The last post introduced vitrimers.  This post will provide more detailed information regarding the chemistry of the covalent adaptive networks in vitrimers. In Leibler’s pioneering work, the cured network contained a covalent adaptive network (CAN). Figure 1. Schematic approach to vitrimers [1] In Figure 1, there are two types of covalent adaptive networks (CANs): associative […] The post Thermoset Re-use and Recycling – Part Three appeared first on Polymer Innovation Blog .
