Catalyst‐Free Mass Polymerization and Characterization of Bio‐Polyhydroxhyurethanes Based on Resorcinol Bis(Cyclocarbonate)

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.
Non‐isocyanate polyhydroxyurethanes (PHUs) were synthesized from resorcinol bis(cyclocarbonate) and eco‐friendly diamines under mild, catalyst‐free conditions. The resulting polymers were extensively characterized for their structural, thermal, and mechanical properties, as well as processability and adhesion performance.
