From: Grave-to-cradle photothermal upcycling of waste polyesters over spent LiCoO2
a Conversion of PET and yield of BHET over Li1-xCoO2. b Effect of UV light (0.01 W cm−2) on the depolymerization of PET in photothermal catalysis and thermal catalysis. c Arrhenius plot of the rate constant of PET glycolysis for Li0.76CoO2 through thermal and photothermal catalysis. d Conversion of PET and yield of BHET over Li0.76CoO2 for ten cycles. All error bars represent the standard deviations of three independent measurements and the bars indicate mean values.
