A tandem approach for waste-to-nanomaterial transformation towards polyethylene recycling
Polyethylene was recycled into carbon materials via tandem cross-linking and carbonization using sodium amide, enabling C–H bond cleavage and C–N bond formation, and these materials showed good performance in gas separation and energy storage.
