A vulcanizing agent is added during the processing of a polymer, and can form a crosslinking structure network in the polymer, thereby improving the mechanical properties of the material. Furthermore, the crosslinking agent can also de-crosslink the polymer material at a high temperature, and after being cooled, same can be crosslinked again to produce a network structure, thus endowing the polymer material with thermoplasticity for repeated processing.
