Biobased covalent adaptable networks: towards better sustainability of thermosets
Xiao-Li Zhao, Pei-Xiu Tian, Yi‐Dong Li, Jian‐Bing Zeng
Abstract
Thermosets have many advantages such as excellent mechanical properties, dimensional stability and environmental resistance, but suffer from unsustainability because they are difficult to recycle and overdependent on petroleum chemicals.
