Dynamic multiphase semi-crystalline polymers based on thermally reversible pyrazole-urea bonds
Abstract
Dynamic polymer materials with reversible covalent bonds can reorganize their macromolecular architectures, and thus produce a macroscopic response to the environment. Here, the authors show dynamic covalent polyureas formed by a polyaddition reaction between pyrazoles and diisocyanates at ambient temperature in the absence of a catalyst.
