Polymer Mechanochemistry in Microbubbles

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, 2023
Abstract Polymer mechanochemistry is a promising technology to convert mechanical energy into chemical functionality by breaking covalent and supramolecular bonds site‐selectively. Yet, the mechanochemical reaction rates of covalent bonds in typically used ultrasonication setups lead to reasonable conversions only
