Recycling processes (such as carbon, oxygen, nitrogen cycles etc.) occur each day as an essential character for nature. Managed ecosystems have maintained the natural environment in a state of great harmony for millions of years. In recent decades, various polymers with long-term durability have been developed to be the most predominantly used materials, and have drastically changed the lifestyle of human beings. However, the tremendous growth of plastic debris, with no or very low degradability, over the past decades significantly affects the natural environment. The use of alternative recycling materials is the best option from the environmental point of view. This critical review highlights the most significant progress in chemically recyclable materials, especially several typical systems, which embody perfect recycling between polymers and the starting monomers.
循环过程（如碳、氧、氮循环等）每天都在发生，是自然的基本特征。管理良好的生态系统在数百万年的时间里一直保持着自然环境的高度和谐。近几十年来，人们开发了各种具有长期耐久性的聚合物，作为最主要的材料，极大地改变了人类的生活方式。然而，过去几十年中，大量不可降解或降解性极低的塑料碎片的大量增长，对自然环境造成了严重影响。从环境角度来看，使用替代回收材料是最佳选择。这篇重要的综述强调了化学可回收材料的最重要进展，特别是几个典型的系统，这些系统体现了聚合物和起始单体之间的完美回收。
