Dynamic Polyimine Networks with Good Malleability and Closed-Loop Recyclability from Upcycled Poly(ethylene terephthalate) Waste

MHMengzhe HanYZYing ZhengMLMaolin Li

Key Points

  • The aim is to develop dynamic polyimine networks from upcycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET) waste that exhibit good malleability and closed-loop recyclability.
  • Develop a polyimine network using PET waste as a base material.
  • Assess the malleability of the resulting network under various conditions.
  • Evaluate the closed-loop recyclability of the polyimine networks.
  • The polyimine networks exhibit significantly improved malleability compared to conventional materials.
  • Closed-loop recycling processes are feasible with the new networks, addressing PET waste issues.

Abstract

Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) waste is highly resistant to biodegradation and often downcycled. Although PET has achieved significant industrial success in closed-loop recycling via mechanical processes, these methods often face challenges...
