Solvent-solute interations in PET recycling systems

Abstract: Glycolysis of polyethylterephthalate (PET) catalysed by ionic liquid solvents could offer a metal-free low cost approach to chemical recycling of waste PET. This work will investigate the solvent-substrate interactions the products from glycolysis of PET and ionic liquid solvents/catalysts which will lead to insight into the development of new ionic liquid technologies to explore recycling post-consumer plastics.
