Abstract: Abstract Absorbed moisture is a frequent contributor to performance loss in polymer-based composite structures operating in nearly all environments. However, the fundamental mechanisms that govern water-polymer interaction remain poorly understood. In this molecular dynamics study,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1361-665x/adbf58
Abstract: Traditional epoxy thermosets cannot be reprocessed or recycled due to their permanent covalent cross-linking network. Covalent adaptable networks emerge as a solution, endowing epoxy thermosets with recyclability, reprocessability and self-healing ability to tackle the recycling… read more here.
