Abstract: Methods are provided for making reversible crosslinked polymers. Exemplary methods comprise reacting first and second thermoplastic polymers having non-hindered olefins in the presence of a metathesis catalyst under conditions sufficient to form a crosslinked polymer. In certain embodiments, the methods comprise providing a crosslink promoting additive to improve the strength of the crosslinked polymer. In some embodiments, the methods comprise decrosslinking a crosslinked polymer through a metathesis or an ozonolysis reaction.
