Chemical recycling of poly(ethylene terephthalate). Application to the synthesis of multiblock copolyesters [PDF]

, 2014
The chemical recycling of the poly(ethylene terephthalate), (PET), has been successfully carried out by glycolysis in the presence of bis (2-hydroxyethyl) terephthalate (BHET) resulting in the formation of hydroxytelechelic oligomers.
