Standardization guidelines and future trends for PET hydrolase research - Nature Communications Enzymatic depolymerization of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) towards monomer recycling is a promising strategy for a bio-based circular plastic economy, but progress is limited by the lack of standa...

🔬 Enzymatic #PET #depolymerization is a promising path to circular plastics ♻️—but inconsistent testing clouds progress.

New article highlights the need for standardized assays, uniform PET samples & industry-relevant conditions to boost enzyme discovery and data reproducibility.

"complete PET depolymerization."

Elegante Lösung. Ein Lesegenuss.

Ich kann Menschen nicht verstehen, die sich nicht für Chemie interessieren. Das ist ein Verzicht auf Lebensfreude.

Accelerated Continuous Flow Depolymerization of Poly(Methyl Methacrylate) A continuous flow setup comprising an inline dialysis unit for immediate monomer removal is used for the depolymerization of poly(methyl methacrylate) (pMMA), synthesized via reversible addition–fragm...

Hot off the press in JACS:

Our work on depolymerization of pMMA in a combined continuous flow reactor with inline dialysis. By shifting the depolymerization equilibrium we achieve high monomer yields at high polymer contents
