Metastable Polymers for Circular 3D Printing
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.3D‐printed polymers are usually permanent and hard to recycle. Here, metastable polymers are designed to fall apart on demand. A chemical trigger unzips the printed material back into its original building blocks within minutes at room temperature.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Environmental Synthesis Radar (ESR) evaluates the environmental impact of (early‐stage) multi‐step chemical syntheses, providing a holistic view by using 18 midpoint impact categories. Unlike conventional life‐cycle assessment (LCA) approaches, ESR reveals three complementary metrics: overall impact Vtotal, environmental hotspots VEF, and critical ...
