Fabrication and degradation of polyperoxides by a radical chain process under mild conditions
We have fabricated polyperoxides as new kinds of environment-friendly and degradable polymers using 1,3-diene compounds and oxygen as the starting comonomers under mild temperature and pressure conditions. They degrade in a radical chain mechanism by various stimuli; for example, degradation induced by physical (heating or irradiation), chemical (redox), and biochemical (enzymatic) stimuli.
