A system, composition, and method of producing a heat resistant and higher toughness plastic material that results in enhanced Polydiketoenamines (PDK) materials. Such systems, compositions, and/or methods may include combination of a triketone and a plasticizer with other enhancing materials such as in one variation a heat resistant difunctional or trifunctional polyamine that forms dynamic covalent bonds with the triketone, or in another variation a diamine that acts as a chain extender and a triamine that acts as a cross-linking agent.
A polymer composition platform with a wide range of architectures and properties is described. The composition employs dynamic covalent chemistry to form polymer compositions that may be chemically recycled to monomer constituents at end of life. The polymers may be manufactured as fibers, elastomers, coatings, adhesives, sheets, etc. that are more easily and efficiently recycled than common plastics.

COPOLYMERS AND PROCESSES FOR RECYCLABLE POLYMER MATERIAL USING ENAMINE-COVALENT ADAPTABLE NETWORKS
A polymer composition platform with a wide range of architectures and properties is described. The composition comprises dynamic covalent chemistry to form polymer compositions that may be chemically recycled to monomer constituents at end of life. A composition as described may be copolymerized with a wide range of common polymers to introduce or enhance attributes like recyclability.
C07C 209/62 - Preparation of compounds containing amino groups bound to a carbon skeleton by cleaving carbon-to-nitrogen, sulfur-to-nitrogen, or phosphorus-to-nitrogen bonds, e.g. hydrolysis of amides, N-dealkylation of amines or quaternary ammonium compounds
