A novel epoxy thermoset is synthesized with dynamic SiOSi bonds. The thermosetting epoxy resins possess excellent reprocessing, reshaping, and shape memory ability due to the special molecular structure. The material exhibits high tensile strength and a fast stress relaxation process. Surprisingly, it can achieve complete healing and keep stable mechanical property after multi‐processing.
The incorporation of carbon nanotubes into catalyst-free thermoset polyurea composites can achieve their excellent reprocessability by hot press or micro injection.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
