Dynamic covalent bonds (DCBs) have received significant attention over the past decade.
These are covalent bonds that are capable of exchanging or switching between several …

Covalent adaptable networks (CANs), unlike typical thermosets or other covalently
crosslinked networks, possess a unique, often dormant ability to activate one or more forms …

The classical division of polymeric materials into thermoplastics and thermosets based on
covalent network structure often implies that these categories are distinct and irreconcilable …

The incorporation of dynamic covalent linkages within and between polymer chains brings
new properties to classical thermosetting polymer formulations, in particular in terms of …

To develop siloxane-containing vitrimers with fast dynamic characteristics, different
mechanistic pathways have been investigated using a range of catalysts. In particular, one …

Robust self‐healing thermoplastic elastomers are expected to have repeated healing
capability, remarkable mechanical properties, transparency, and superior toughness. The …

From cars to airplanes, from household appliances to indoor ornaments, from biomedical
devices to factory equipment, epoxy resins have been deeply rooted in modern society. But …

Dynamic bonds introduce unique properties such as self‐healing, recyclability, shape
memory, and malleability to polymers. Significant efforts have been made to synthesize a …

This Review presents and discusses the current state of the art in “exchangeable liquid
crystalline elastomers”, that is, LCE materials utilizing dynamically cross-linked networks …

Linear chains in thermoplastics make them relatively weak in performance but inherently
weldable and recyclable. By contrast, thermosets with permanently crosslinked networks …
