The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Vitrimers: Permanently crosslinked polymers with dynamic network topology (2020, background): “6B).[37, 91, 92] In some cases, commercial resins can be converted into vitrimers by merely adding an appropriate catalyst that facilitates exchange reactions or by adjusting the composition of the resins.”
Reprocessing and recycling of thermosetting polymers based on bond exchange reactions (2014, methodology): “Another method consists of using radicals to initiate exchange reactions and create plasticity in thermosets[24-28].”
