Utilizing the conjugated backbone structure and ICT mechanisms, several novel D-A type polymers were designed and synthesized using thiophene, strong fused-ring thiophene donors (IDT or IDTT), ultrastrong acceptor units (benzobisthiadiazole derivatives (SNT) or benzothiadiazolo[3,4-g]quinoxaline (TQX)), and acceptor benzothiadiazole (TZ) as the building blocks for constructing broad-band absorption electrochromic polymers. The incorporation of SNT (or TQX) units into the polymer chain induces the NIR modulation, while the combination of TZ units fulfills the long-wave visible absorption for synergistic visible and near-infrared (NIR) modulation of the polymers.

The chemical depolymerization of polylactic acid (PLA) into lactate esters and amides represents a straightforward and efficient strategy for upcycling PLA waste into specialty polymers. In this study, we developed a mini-library of lactate amide-based acrylic monomers using commercially available PLA bags as feedstock. These monomers were polymerized into homo, statistical, and block copolymers via Cu(II)Br2/Me6TREN-mediated polymerization under UV light. The resulting polymers exhibited water solubility adjustable through amide N-substitution combined with low ecotoxicity.
