In‐Process Melt Separation of Depolymerized PET in PET/PE Blends for Upcycling via Twin‐Screw Extrusion

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
This work aims to depolymerize PET in PET/LLDPE blends via twin‐screw extrusion to allow low‐Mw PET to be extracted and separated. The separated PET is made into BHET and then sold to create virgin PET. LLDPE will be cracked into low‐Mw products that can be utilized as various products.

Copolymer Synthesis of N‐Vinylacetamide and 2‐Methylene‐1,3‐Dioxepane Provides a New Degradable Polymer

Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 1306-1318, 15 March 2025.
ABSTRACT N‐vinylamides, especially noncyclic N‐vinylacetamide (NVA), have been used in various applications such as biomaterials, surfactants, and hydrogels. However, their potential to copolymerize with cyclic ketene acetal (CKA) to create degradable polymers is underexplored.
