Epoxy-based vitrimers represent a paradigm shift in material science, offering an unprecedented combination of mechanical robustness, environmental sustainability, and reconfigurability. These dynamic polymer systems utilize associative dynamic covalent bonds (DCBs) such as transesterification to blend the structural integrity of thermosets with the recyclability and self-healing properties of thermoplastics. This unique combination makes vitrimers ideal candidates for high-performance applications in industries such as civil engineering, where material durability, repairability, and environmental compatibility are critical. Epoxy-based vitrimers, in particular, exhibit exceptional self-healing capabilities, allowing them to autonomously repair microcracks and damage, restoring mechanical properties under appropriate stimuli such as heat or light. Their recyclability further aligns with global sustainability goals by reducing material waste and lifecycle costs. Recent advancements have also integrated bio-based feedstocks and scalable manufacturing methods, enhancing the feasibility of these materials for industrial applications. This review explores the underlying self-healing mechanisms, dynamic recycling processes, and the emerging role of epoxy-based vitrimers in civil engineering. Challenges related to scalability, mechanical optimization, and regulatory acceptance are also discussed, with a focus on their potential to drive sustainable innovation in infrastructure materials.
