polymers are a key enabler to mitigate plastic waste. Much work has shown that network polyesters can be chemically recycled through transesterification reactions with alcohol reagents. Network polyesters are especially useful as recyclable matrices for fiber-reinforced composites to allow recycling and reuse of the fibers. Ethylene glycol is typically used as the alcohol reagent for the depolymerization reactions, though it requires high temperatures. Inspired by work from Cho et al. and our previous work, we attempted to degrade the polyamide photopolymers that contains ample ester groups from the thiol monomers, using potassium carbonate (K2CO3) and methanol at ambient conditions. Bulk polymer samples were placed in saturated K2CO3 methanol solutions and degraded completely in 24 hours. Chemical analysis using 1 H-NMR of the resulting small molecules revealed the formation of methyl esters at 3.68 ppm with an integration of 3 protons shifting from the original mercaptopropionate peak at 4.02 ppm with an integration of 2 protons ( 1 H NMR shown in Figure ). The nitrogen amide adjacent proton peaks can also be seen to shift from the meta-phthalamide monomer at 3.96 ppm to the degraded monomer's location at 3.74, both with a proton integration of 2 relative to the aromatic peaks. Combined, these results show a high conversion of the transesterification reaction with methanol to form methyl esters. An entailed study of the depolymerization reaction kinetics is currently being conducted in our group and will be reported elsewhere. We also envision that the small molecules can be polymerized to reclaim the same materials, similar to work done using ethylene glycol for polyester networks, which could enable closed-loop recycling for ductile, glassy network polymers.
