Fig. 2. Kinetics of PET alcoholysis.
(A) Scheme detailing the alcoholysis of PET and the terpenoids studied in this work. (B) Kinetic plots of ZnOAc2- and ZnOAc2/DMAP–mediated glycolysis at 120° to 180°C (10 mol % catalyst). (C) Kinetic plots of ZnOAc2/DMAP–catalyzed glycolysis compared to selected terpineolysis methods at 120°C (10 mol % catalyst).
