Abstract

Since the concept of vitrimer with both thermosetting and thermoplastic advantages was proposed

research on vitrimer has shown broad development prospects and has received widespread attention from the academic community. The performance

reprocessing ability and self-repairing properties of vitrimers are closely related to their rheological properties. This paper reviews the current status and progress of rheological research on vitrimers

aiming to summarize and analyze the main methods of rheological research on vitrimers and explore the main factors affecting their rheological properties. The role of rheological research in promoting their application in areas such as high-performance coatings is further discussed. It also proposes key issues that need to be solved in the current research on rheological research of vitrimers

and provides ideas and suggestions for subsequent research.
