Elastomers are widely used in textiles, foam, and rubber, yet they are rarely recycled due to
the difficulty in deconstructing polymer chains to reusable monomers. Introducing reversible …

Vulcanized, foamed latex rubber features high density of intercommunicated cells and
controlled elastomeric properties, rendering wide applications from elastic sponges to …

Vulcanized natural rubber latex foams (NRLF) are a kind of sponge product with multi-
bubble structures that are widely used in household products. The recycling of waste scraps …

The widespread use of polymers has made our lives increasingly convenient by offering a
more convenient and dependable material. However, the challenge of efficiently …

The formation of end-linked polymer networks is commonly modeled as idealized chemical
