Why can’t chemical recycling–that is, the conversion of polymer to monomers and re-conversion of monomers to polymer–be done easily with HDPE and LDPE?
Recycling of monomers instead of polymer may become an interesting
option against environmental pollution. What conditions should be
applied for such a degradation to be performed.

- Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) has received much recent attention because the lactic acid monomer [CH3CH(OH)COOH] from which it is made can be obtained from carbohydrates rather than petroleum.
