主要工作业绩
朱剑波博士，教授，博士生导师，环保型高分子材料国家地方联合工程实验室固定成员。2019年3月至今任职于四川大学化学学院，独立开展环境友好型高分子材料方向的研究。
有机高分子材料已经成为人们日常生活、经济活动和国防建设必不可少的支撑材料。但是，高分子材料的快速发展和不当处理也带来了一系列环境问题和资源问题。例如，从大家所熟知的废弃塑料的“白色污染”、废弃轮胎的“黑色污染”以及废弃纺织纤维的“彩色污染”到如今受到广泛关注的海洋“微塑料”等问题。同时，目前高分子材料的生产过度依赖不可再生的化石资源。针对上述日益严重的问题，课题组从实现高分子材料可持续发展的角度出发，开展有机化学与高分子化学交叉学科研究，主要有以下几个研究方向：（1）开发新型生物质来源、性能优异高分子材料；（2）发展高效催化剂通过不对称反应构建手性聚合单体；（3）开发可反复循环利用高分子材料；（4）发展高效、高选择性高分子合成方法。例如，我们针对废旧塑料污染问题，发展了一类基于五元环内酯的高性能可反复循环利用高分子材料，该研究为解决废旧塑料回收问题提供新的思路。该工作在《科学》杂志上发表以后，引起国际学术界和社交媒体的广泛关注。相关成果以第一作者或通讯作者身份发表在Science、 Nat. Catal、 Nat. Commun、 J. Am. Chem. Soc.、 Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.等国际顶尖学术期刊上。其中可反复循环利用聚酯工作(Science 2018, 360, 398-403)被美国化学与工程新闻杂志(C&EN)选为2018年年度成果(Selected as the Research of the Year 2018 by C&EN)。课题组关于高性能可降解、可循环聚酯创制工作（ J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2021, 143, 20591-20597；Nat. Catal. 2023, 6, 720–728）被国家自然科学基金委官方网站亮点评（https://www.nsfc.gov.cn/publish/portal0/tab448/info82191.htm；https://www.nsfc.gov.cn/publish/portal0/tab1288/info90241.htm）。目前，课题组承担了中组部、科技部、国家自然科学基金委、四川省以及四川大学多项科研项目。
