  Abstract

In order to recycle poly(ethylene terephthalate), methanolysis has been investigated at elevated temperature and under high pressure without catalyst to afford dimethyl terephthalate and ethylene glycol. The reaction was carried out under 62 atm, 310 ℃ for 50min to obtain 98% dimethyl terephthalate. The method has been suggested as a simple and economical one to recycle the poly(ethylene terephthalate).
