Functionalization of polyethylene with hydrolytically-stable ester groups

Low-density (LD) and high-density polyethylene (HDPE), recycled or not, incorporates up to 7 wt% of ester groups after reacting either with ethyl diazoacetate (EDA) under catalytic and solvent free-reaction conditions, or with maleic anhydride (MA) and acrylates (AC) under catalytic radical conditio...

Descripción
Sumario:Low-density (LD) and high-density polyethylene (HDPE), recycled or not, incorporates up to 7 wt% of ester groups after reacting either with ethyl diazoacetate (EDA) under catalytic and solvent free-reaction conditions, or with maleic anhydride (MA) and acrylates (AC) under catalytic radical conditions. The resulting upcycled polyethylene esters are hydrolytically stable at extreme pH (0–14) and can be further transformed into carboxylic acids, carboxylates, other esters and amides.
