  • REDUCED CRYSTALLINITY POLYMERS FOR BIODEGRADATION
    Publication number: 20260234356
    Abstract: The present invention is directed at the production of relatively reduced crystallinity and relatively high surface area polymer that is suitable for enzymatic degradation. In particular, the preparation of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fibers from PET bottles with relatively reduced crystallinity and relatively higher surface area than the PET bottle feedstock. Such PET fibers are particularly suitable for enzymatic degradation into monomeric components.

  • POLYAMIDE RECOVERY FOR ENZYMATIC DEPOLYMERIZATION
    Publication number: 20240018331
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to polyamide recovery from domestic or commercial waste. In particular, a method of polyamide recovery from domestic or commercial waste, via a selective dissolution procedure, using a methanol-calcium chloride solvent system, that isolates and recovers the polyamide at a particle size range that is particularly suitable for enzymatic depolymerization.
