asilentbob Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Don't know about the UK... but in the USA PET plastic is everywhere... synthesizing terephthalic acid from it involves refluxing the PET plastic chips with a strong base in ethylene glycol in a stainless steel container... IIRC... and the rest I forget... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
