Biobased chiral semi-crystalline or amorphous high-performance polyamides and their scalable stereoselective synthesis
Bio‐based compounds often suffer from high production cost and low performance when used to synthesise macromolecules. Here the authors show the conversion of (+)‐3‐ carene, a by‐product of the cellulose industry, into its ε‐lactams and then to polyamides with high‐performance thermal properties....
