One‐Pot Upcycling of Heterogeneous Polyester Waste to Biodegradable Thermoplastics: A Cost‐Effective Solution for a Circular Economy

open access: yesSusMat, EarlyView.
One‐pot melt transesterification upcycles post‐consumer PET and PBT with PTMG into biodegradable TPEEs featuring randomized polyester chains, tunable mechanical properties, and accelerated biodegradation. TEA and LCA analyses show competitive cost and reduced carbon emissions relative to PP and PBAT.
