Disassembly of Elastomers: Poly(olefin sulfone)-Silicones with Switchable Mechanical Properties

An elastomeric polymer composite that can be disassembled at will into its individual components when exposed to mild bases is presented. The composite is formed of a poly(olefin sulfone) and a silicone bound together using “click” chemistry. The mechanical properties of the composites can be varied...
