	Polyurea-urethane (PUU) microcapsules prepared via interfacial polymerization have gained significant interest due to their tunable size and membrane thickness, high loading efficiency, and scalability. Although several aromatic and aliphatic diols and polyols have been used to produce PU foams and films, the use of aromatic diols to synthesize PUU MICs via interfacial polymerization is an unexplored domain due to the restricted solubility of aromatic diols in water. This report highlights the successful preparation of PUU microcapsules using an aromatic diol (benzene-1,4-dimethanol, BDM) to encapsulate dimethyl phthalate (DMP), a model insect repellent. The developed PUU microcapsules exhibited a high % encapsulation efficiency of 92 % and a size range of 1-20 mu m. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) thermograms revealed a significantly high glass transition temperature (Tg) of 143 degrees C as compared to 108 degrees C in the case of PUU MICs with aliphatic diols. Release studies confirm enhanced barrier properties for aromatic diol-based MICs as compared to aliphatic ethylene glycol-based PUU MICs, and interpretation of the release profile using the Weibull Model reveals that Fickian diffusion is the dominant mechanism in the release of DMP. These microcapsules can be used in high-performance applications such as composites, coatings, electronics, and construction.&lt;/p&gt;

	The accumulation of end-of-life plastic materials and composite reinforcement waste materials has brought much attention to developing sustainable alternatives and their re-processability. Incorporating covalent adaptable networks (CANs) into the crosslinked network bridges the concept of reversibility into the otherwise conventional non-reversible networks. This study investigates the structure-property relation in two reversible hardener systems derived from vanillin using Schiff base chemistry. The ``CAN'' systems were synthesized by condensation of vanillin with two amines, 4,4'-oxydianiline and tris(2-aminoethyl)amine, respectively, to form Va_ODA and Va_TAEA. The epoxy thermosets exhibited glass transition temperatures (T-g) of 125 degrees C and 115 degrees C, respectively, for Va_ODA and Va_TAEA, which is superior to most reversible vanillin-based systems reported. The vitrimer-thermosets exhibited promising mechanical and thermal properties, and reshaping abilities as a function of applied temperatures, indicating the dynamic nature of linkages. Chemical degradability was demonstrated by heating to 80 degrees C for 12 h in aqueous acidic medium or excess amine. The fabricated glass fiber composites exhibited good mechanical properties with tensile strength of 361 MPa and degradability in acetic acid/water mixture with a fiber recovery of &amp;gt;98 %. The recovered glass fiber exhibited almost similar tensile strength as the virgin glass fiber, demonstrating its potential reusability. The epoxy vitrimers underwent mechanical reprocessing through hot-pressing, as well as chemical reprocessing via 3D printing and by regeneration of imine bonds to form an epoxy resin.&lt;/p&gt;
