Reimagining plastic waste: sustainable depolymerization using mechanochemistry as a gateway to high-value applications

Environmental Sustainability 2025
E. J. Mathew

Summary

Researchers review how mechanochemical depolymerization can transform plastic waste into valuable monomers suitable for high-grade bottles, medical packaging, 3D printing resins, and bio-nanoparticles, offering a safer and more sustainable alternative to conventional plastic recycling methods.

Mechanochemical depolymerization transforms plastic waste into monomers for high-grade bottles, advanced medical packaging, 3D printing resins, polymer-based hydrogels, and bio-nanoparticles, thereby enabling safe, sustainable, and high-value applications. Created with BioRender.
