Synthesis Dibenzyl Terephthalate Through Depolimerization of Poly (ethylene terephthalate) as Alternative of Waste Plastics Recycling

Synthesis dibenzyl terephathalate were done through PET degradation by refluxing in benzyl alcohol at 145oC temperature for 20, 24, and 28 hours in the presence of zinc acetate catalyst. The result of degradation was purified by recristalization in methanol and then melting point (mp), FTIR, 1H NMR...
