Here we describe the preparation of two-dimensional (2D) polymer platelets based on poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) using living crystallization-driven self-assembly (CDSA), a seeded growth strategy that uses crystallization as a directional driving force to achieve epitaxial growth with controlled size and shape. The metho...
Precise control of surface patterns in assembled nanostructures remains a significant challenge in materials science. Here, we introduce a scalable bottom-up strategy utilizing living crystallization-driven self-assembly (CDSA) to fabricate tunable 3D surface patterns on polymer platelets. Inspired by biological grow...

Postconsumer plastic waste has the potential to serve as a valuable feedstock in an integrated circular economy in which it can be interconverted between thermoplastic and thermoset materials. However, the development of cost-effective and sustainable recycling or upcycling methods is often constrained by harsh reactio...
