Mechanically Triggered Chemical Recyclable Polyethylene‐Like Materials

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Polyethylene‐like copolymers with benchmark properties are prepared by embedding latent cyclobutene mechanophores to overcome PE's end‐of‐life limits. The mechanophores are inert in service but are selectively opened by solvent‐free ball milling to yield well‐defined telechelic oligomers.
