Functionalized and Chemically Recyclable “Polyethylene-like” Polyesters from Selective Ring-Opening Polymerization of Bifunctional Macrocycles
Developing polyethylene-like (PE-like) materials with built-in chemical recyclability provides a promising strategy for addressing the end-of-life challenges of persistent polyolefins. Entropy-driven ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of macrolactones offers an attractive route to floor-temperature (Tf)-regulated long...
