Summary

Researchers demonstrated proof-of-concept for catalytic upcycling of polyester and cotton textile-derived microfibers into structured solid carbon products, using a defined fiber feedstock to establish a pathway for converting fiber pollution into value-added carbon materials.

This article demonstrates proof-of-concept for upcycling textile derived microfibers to structured solid carbon products of value using a representative well defined feedstock of real textile derived fibers of polyester and cotton.
