pet wastes from post consumer bottles can be chemically degraded into some compounds such as oligomers and some monomers such as bishydroxy ethyl terephthalate(bhet)by some catalysts(zn, co, pb and mn acetates) in ethylene glycol at 189 oc under n2 atmospheric pressure. the compounds obtained in the chemical depolymerization can be used as plasticizers in paint, fibbers, rubbers and plastic ind...
