Abstract
Catalyst-free and reversible step-growth Diels-Alder (DA) polymerization has a wide range of applications in polymer synthesis and is a promising method for fabricating recyclable thermoplastics. The effectiveness of polymerization and depolymerization relies on the chemical building blocks, often utilizing furan as the diene and maleimide as the dienophile. Compared to the traditional diene-dienophile or two-component approach that requires precise stoichiometry, cyclopentadiene (Cp) can serve dual roles via self-dimerization. This internally balanced platform offers a route to access high-molecular-weight polymers and a dynamic handle for polymer recycling, which has yet to be explored. Herein, through a reactivity investigation of different telechelic Cp derivatives, the uncontrolled cross-linking of Cp was addressed, revealing the first successful DA homopolymerization. To demonstrate the generality of our methodology, we synthesized and characterized six Cp homopolymers with backbones derived from common thermoplastics, such as poly(dimethylsiloxane), hydrogenated polybutadiene, and ethylene phthalate. Among these materials, the hydrogenated polybutadiene-Cp analog can be thermally depolymerized (Mn = 68 to 23 kDa) and repolymerized to the parent polymer (Mn = 68 kDa) under solvent- and catalyst-free conditions. This process was repeated over three cycles without intermediate purification, confirming the efficient thermo-selective recyclability. The varied degradable properties of the other four Cp-incorporated thermoplastics were also examined. Overall, this work provides a general methodology for accessing a new class of reversible homopolymers, potentially expanding the design and construction of sustainable thermoplastics.

Abstract
Polystyrene microspheres in the size range 50 nm to 3 microns were fed by gavage to female Sprague Dawley rats daily for 10 days at a dose of 1.25 mg/kg-1. Previous histological evidence of the uptake of these particles and their absorption across the gastrointestinal tract and passage via the mesentery lymph supply and lymph nodes to the liver and spleen was confirmed by analysis of tissues for the presence of polystyrene by gel permeation chromatography. Measurement of radioactivity of tissues following administration of 100 nm and 1 micron I125-labelled polystyrene latex particles for 8 days was corroborative although less secure because of the potential lability of the labelled particles. The extent of absorption of 50 nm particles under the conditions of these experiments was 34% and of the 100 nm particles 26% (as measured by determination of polystyrene content), of which total, about 7% (50 nm) and 4% (100 nm), was in the liver, spleen, blood and bone marrow. Particles larger than 100 nm did not reach the bone marrow, and those larger than 300 nm were absent from blood. No particles were detected in heart or lung tissue.
