DEGRADATION OF POLY(ETHYLENETEREPHTALATE) WASTE TO OBTAIN OLIGOMERS USING A ZINC COMPLEX AS CATALYST

ABSTRACT Thermal degradation of Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) bottles waste was carried out by glycolysis using triethyleneglycol (TEG) as nucleophilic agent and N1,N2-bis(2-aminobenzyl)-1,2-diaminoethane zinc(II) (ABEN), in order to test this compound as catalyst in the degradation of PET unti...

Poly(ethyleneterephthalate) degradation catalyst chemical recycling glycolysis ABSTRACT Thermal degradation of Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) bottles waste was carried out by glycolysis using triethyleneglycol (TEG) as nucleophilic agent and N1,N2-bis(2-aminobenzyl)-1,2-diaminoethane zinc(II) (ABEN), in order to test this compound as catalyst in the degradation of PET until to obtain short chains of polyester (oligomers). The depolymerization processes was tested at 180, 190 and 210 °C, and two molar ratios of PET:TEG (1:1.3 and 1:2.6), the amount of catalyst used was fixed at 1% in relation to PET, the best experiment of PET glycolysis was found at 190 °C during two hours in a mass relation PET:TEG 1:1.3.
