Aggregation‐induced enhanced emission for quantification of recycled content in automotive plastics
Polymer International, EarlyView.Quantifying recycled content in four automotive plastics using aggregation‐induced enhanced emission showed that performance was highly dependent on both polymer and additive chemistries. Abstract The use of plastics in the automotive industry is increasing due to their versatility, light weight and affordability.
