Title A "Polymer to Polymer" Chemical Recycling of PLA Plastics by the "DE-RE Polymerization" Strategy
Year 2022
Published Macromolecules, 55, 5
Abstract Plastics recycling has become an important issue based on the principle of sustainability and circular economy. Therefore, the development of a valuable chemical recycling method, to achieve the recycling process of end-of-life polylactide (PLA) waste without loss of material properties, meets unprecedented opportunities. In this regard, we propose a "DE-RE polymerization" strategy to achieve the recycling process from endof-life PLA plastic waste to new virgin-quality PLA materials in a "polymer to polymer" mode. This approach improves the efficiency of PLA recycling and promotes the development of plastics reutilization.
