Polymer Chemistry Series- Vitrimer Resins

This authoritative handbook offers a comprehensive overview of vitrimer chemistry, synthesis, characterization and applications - bridging academic research and industrial practice. Vitrimers combine the strength of thermosets with the ability to be reshaped and reused like thermoplastics. This handbook provides a clear overview of vitrimer chemistry, how they are made, how they are tested, and where they are used, linking research with practical applications. Written by experts from around the world, it covers dynamic covalent bonding, modern testing methods, and examples from industries such as composites, electronics, and additive manufacturing. It also looks at challenges around scaling up production, sustainability, and bringing these materials to market. Aimed at researchers, engineers, and industry professionals, this book offers a useful guide to the development of dynamic polymer materials and their role in a circular economy.
