Sustainability Performance, National Culture, and Corporate Financial Performance
ABSTRACT Given the increasing global importance of sustainability performance and reporting, along with prior mixed results in the literature, we examine the impact of country‐specific attributes on sustainability reporting. Specifically, we examine the impact of national culture and legal origin on sustainability performance and how national culture ...

Upcycling of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) through ammonolysis is pursued. Model studies on bis(2‐hydroxyethyl) terephthalate (BHET) reacting with ammonia in excess ethylene glycol (EG) to form terephthalamide (TPD) are presented. Sequential ester conversion is characterized by the pseudo reaction rate constants of = 1.02±0.09 h‐1 and = 0.44±0.08 ...

Herein, a novel synthetic, scalable approach brines is presented to produce Li1.6Mn1.6O4 (lithium manganese oxides [LMO]) with high phase purity for direct lithium extraction applications from Li‐rich geothermal. Compared to conventional hydrothermal approaches, the LMO materials prepared herein display lower manganese leaching rates, higher extraction
