Extended Data Fig. 2: Illustrative scheme of synthesis and full degradation of poly(MA-alt-CM)-based thermoset.

From: Vinyl polymers with fully degradable carbon backbones enabled by aromatization-driven C–C bond cleavage

Extended Data Fig. 2

[BDA]0:[MA]0:[CM]0:[B(2,4-F2Ph)3]0:[PtBu3]0 = 5:200:525:2:1. In contrast to uncrosslinked analogue (Tg = 158.0 °C, Td = 274 °C), thermoset exhibited comparable Tg value (157.2 °C) and slightly lower thermal stability (Td = 251 °C).
