Mechanical Strong and Recyclable Rubber Nanocomposites with Sustainable Cellulose Nanocrystals and Interfacial Exchangeable Bonds

Liming Cao et al.

Summary: A covalently cross-linked yet reprocessable carboxylated styrene butadiene rubber (CSBR) nanocomposite has been developed, reinforced and crosslinked by epoxy-modified tunicate cellulose nanocrystals (TCNCs). The materials form exchangeable ester bonds at the rubber-filler interface, allowing the network topology to be rearranged via transesterification reactions for reprocessing and recycling. Introducing metal coordination bonds creates a dual dynamic network in the system, further improving mechanical properties without compromising recycling and reprocessing performance.
