Upcycling of poly(ethylene terephthalate) waste plastics to terephthalonitrile
We present a mild (≤120 °C), selective, and low-carbon route for converting poly(ethylene terephthalate) waste plastics into terephthalonitrile, demonstrating plastic upcycling integrated with sustainable nitrogen-containing chemical production.
