Foam-to-elastomer recycling of polyurethane materials through incorporation of dynamic covalent TAD-indole linkages Universiteit Gent
Polyurethane (PU) foams are a large volume commodity product and as such pose a considerable recycling challenge for the polymer manufacturing industry. The incorporation of dynamic covalent bonds within a PU network chemistry is a possible strategy to improve the sustainable development of PU foams. Herein, we report the outcome of a research program aimed at the incorporation of thermoreversible triazolinedione (TAD)-indole linkages within an ...
