The experiments were carried out in excess ethylene glycol (EG) and poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) oligomer in the presence of zinc acetate as catalyst at 190Β°C. It was found that during the glycolysis reaction, the monomer and dimer were contained in the liquid phase. After 2 h of the glycolysi
## Abstract This paper covers the recent research carried out by the authors on the chemical recycling of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) taken from postβconsumer softβdrink bottles. The chemical recycling techniques used are critically reviewed and the authors' contribution is highlighted. Hydr
To reclaim the monomers or prepare intermediates suitable for other polymers zinc acetate catalayzed glycolysis of waste poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) was carried out with ethylene or propylene glycol, with PET/glycol molar ratios of 1 : 0.5-1 : 3, in xylene at 170-245ΠC. During the multiphase
