Recycling of Epoxy Thermoset and Composites via Good Solvent Assisted and Small Molecules Participated Exchange Reactions

Thermosetting polymers and composites are a class of high-performance materials with significant industrial applications. However, recycling of thermosets and their filling matters are significantly challenging. Here, we propose a method to recycle epoxy thermosetting polymer and composites efficiently by a synergistic effect of a solvent mixture using a highly efficient organic catalyst at an ordinary pressure and mild temperatures. The...
