Project

Internally catalysed covalent exchange reactions for (re-)processable polymer networks

In this project, internal catalysis and neighbouring group participation will be investigated for its use in polymer materials. Therefore, 1,4-dicarboxylic acid derivatives and related building blocks will be used for the production of covalent adaptive networks and vitrimer materials with broad application scopes.

Date:1 Oct 2015 →  30 Sep 2019
Keywords:neighbouring group participation, vitrimers, polymer recycling
Disciplines:Synthesis of materials, Chemical characterisation of materials
