Study on the Hydrolysis of PET Catalyzed by Carbonates under Microwave Irradiation

A study for optimizing the experimental conditions for the hydrolysis of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) catalyzed by carbonates was performed. The main influence factors of PET microwave hydrolytic reaction, such as the reaction temperature, time and catalyst dosage, were confirmed and these effec...
