Title Molecular catalyst systems as key enablers for tailored polyesters and polycarbonate recycling concepts
Year 2018
Published Science Advances, 4, 8
Abstract A transition metal catalyst system for the selective catalytic depolymerization of various polyester- and polycarbonate-based materials is presented. The use of a molecular ruthenium catalyst with selected triphos ligands enabled a selective hydrogenolysis of a large diversity of polymeric consumer products, paving the way to innovative and sustainable recycling strategies within a circular economy.
