ABSTRACT

The success of polymers in consumer products lies in their capability and flexibility in providing tailor-made products for specific functions. This uniqueness of polymers will also help in solving the question regarding the sustainability of polymers in future. Of course, the challenges concerning sustainability needs to be addressed, and it is the responsibility of the research community to carry out research for empowering advanced applications and annulling the challenges in this field by carefully analyzing the past lessons. The future of polymer science is thoroughly dependent on the scientific advances and the willingness of the society.
