Rehealable imide–imine hybrid polymers with full recyclability

Abstract

We report a hybridization strategy to prepare novel poly(imide–imine) hybrid thermosets, which exhibit combined advantages of high mechanical strength of polyimides and recyclability of polyimines. Such a hybridization strategy involving dynamic covalent chemistry provides a conceptual approach to convert conventional unprocessable polymers into malleable and recyclable materials.
