This article highlights recent discoveries within the field of polysulfides which are created
from waste sulfur through inverse vulcanisation. Due to the current environmental climate …

Sulfur is not only a highly abundant element, but also produced as a by-product of the
petrochemicals industry. However, it has not been conventionally used to produce functional …

Elemental sulfur is an abundant and inexpensive chemical feedstock, yet it is underused as
a starting material in chemical synthesis. Recently, a process coined inverse vulcanization …

The world is witnessing a growing interest in the utilization of waste materials to reduce
environmental burden, add product value and promote sustainability. Such noble goals are …

Inverse vulcanization combines elemental sulfur, a petroleum waste product, and organic
monomers to synthesize high sulfur content polysulfides without the need for solvents. The …

Inverse vulcanized polysulfides have been proposed as a promising sustainable material as
they can be synthesized from waste sulfur in a simple one-pot reaction. This perspective …

Elemental sulfur, an industrial by-product from petroleum industries worldwide, has drawn
sufficient attention to researchers. The limited scope of application has caused a colossal …

We demonstrate two renewable crosslinkers that can stabilise sustainable high sulfur
content polymers, via inverse-vulcanisation. With increasing levels of sulfur produced as a …

The specialist properties of polysulfide polymers were immediately recognised on discovery,
and technology was soon developed to convert these materials into useful products. In this …

Inverse vulcanisation stabilizes polysulfide chains through cross-linking. This research
focuses on the incorporation of cyclosiloxane cross-linkers containing multiple alkene …
