Very pleased to see our recent work on chemical recycling of unsaturated polymers highlighted by @physorg_com
phys.org
A study published in Cell Reports Physical Science showcases a novel method for the recycling of unsaturated polymers such as rubber and plastics.

In this massive team effort published in @ACSChemRev, we discuss how olefin metathesis has been applied to the development of new chemically recyclable polymers and the deconstruction of commercial polymers: A great learning experience for us!.

The consumption of synthetic polymers has ballooned; so has the amount of post-consumer waste generated. The current polymer economy, however, is largely linear with most of the post-consumer waste...

Congrats, Jia and Lianqian! Great to see this amazing work published online! We had fun playing with your polymers!.
Today we report @NatureChemistry a strategy for generating native polysaccharides from living polymerization of anhydrosugars - depolymerization is also possible - just up the temperature! #Glycotime #Polymer funded by @BeckmanFnd .
