Scientists upcycle polyesters through new waste-free, scalable process
Turning plastic waste into versatile building blocks for organic chemistry
10-Oct-2023 -
Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have developed a new chemical process which upcycles polyesters, including PET in plastic bottles, to morpholine amide, a versatile and valuable building block for synthesizing a vast range of compounds. The reaction is high yield, waste-free, does ...
