The post-yield fracture of a ductile polymer film: Notch quality, essential work of fracture, crack tip opening displacement, and J-integral [PDF]
Double edge notched tension (DENT) specimens of a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film were tested in an universal testing machine, measuring the displacements and the ligament lengths with a digital image correlation (DIC) system.

AMINOLYSIS OF POLY(ETHYLENE TEREPHTHALATE)
Reactivities of amines and reaction regions in aminolysis of PET fibers were investigated by using various primary amines, ammonia, and hydrazine. Aminolysis occurs randomly and the reaction rate is decreased in the order of MA>HH>EA>n-PA>n-BA>EDA>AM>MEA>iso-BA>sec-BA.

Synthesis of metal nanoparticles for use as nanocatalysts in pet recycling
This study investigated the efficiency of nickel nanocatalysts in the degree of PET conversion, under different conditions. The nanocatalysts were synthesized by the Pechini method at 500, 700 and 900ºC. PET depolymerization, via chemical glycolysis, was

Recycling of Mixed Poly(Ethylene-terephthalate) and Poly(Lactic Acid)
Nowadays, PLA is increasingly used as a packaging material, therefore it may appear in the petrol-based polymer waste stream. However, with the today’s mechanical recycling technologies PLA and PET bottles cannot be easily or cheaply separated. Therefore,
