Mechanochemical Defluorination of Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) With Base Metals
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) mechanochemically reacts with safe‐to‐handle, abundant, and inexpensive base metals Zn and Al, as well as with metals like Cd and Pb, to produce sp2‐carbon and industrially important metal fluorides. The reactivity presents PTFE as a mechanochemical fluorination agent, with opportunities for closed‐loop reductive ...

Active‐Site Photothermal Energy Utilization in PET Depolymerization
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Photothermal catalysis enables efficient PET depolymerization, yet the role of active‐site temperature remains unclear. A catalytic activity reversal between Pd–CNG and PdPOM–CNG is observed under thermal and photothermal conditions. Efficient nanoscale photothermal energy delivery raises active‐site temperature, compensates for lower intrinsic ...

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.An organic‐solvent‐free approach for efficient recovery of Nd from waste hard‐disk drive NdFeB magnets is achieved via selective precipitation with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) substituted by hydrophobic cs‐124, under neutral conditions. Three precipitation cycles lead to 99.7% Nd puritywith 77% recovery yield; the chelator is simply recycled
