High Carbon Recovery in Photocatalytic Degradation of High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE): Blend with Stearic Acid as a Radical Source
{{output}}
A blend of high-density polyethylene (HDPE, Mw = 59.4 kDa) and stearic acid was efficiently degraded under cerium catalyzed photodecarboxylation conditions, and the molecular weight decreased to Mw = ∼5 kDa. The reaction proceeds at 100 °C in tert-butylnitri... ...
