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...
