Upcycling waste polyoxymethylene to value-added chemicals using reusable polymeric acid catalysts at ppm levels
Waste polyoxymethylene (POM) plastic was upcycled using m -phenolsulfonic acid-formaldehyde resin, a polymeric catalyst, to afford value-added chemicals, including insecticides and herbicides, using biomass-derived alcohols, amines or water.
