Lower-temperature bulk depolymerization of commercial polymethacrylates.
Chemical recycling back to monomer represents an attractive methodology to tackle plastic waste. However, current reports focus on either thermally unstable 'designer' polymers or highly diluted solution depolymerizations. Here we report a simple, yet efficient, bulk main-chain scission pathway, whereby the presence of...
