Abstract
Based on the idea of environmental protection and sustainable development, the developing of new procedure for the chemical conversion of plastics and related chemicals into value-added chemicals are always attractive. In this context, we designed a photocatalytic reaction that employs 4-alkyl-1,4-dihydropyridines (alkyl-DHP) and arylamines to degrade and transform formaldehyde polymers. This innovative process effectively degrades paraformaldehyde and polyoxymethylene plastic, yielding a series of amine products in satisfactory quantities. This new procedure unveils a new strategy for the chemical degradation of plastics.
期刊介绍：
Applied Catalysis A: General publishes original papers on all aspects of catalysis of basic and practical interest to chemical scientists in both industrial and academic fields, with an emphasis onnew understanding of catalysts and catalytic reactions, new catalytic materials, new techniques, and new processes, especially those that have potential practical implications.
Papers that report results of a thorough study or optimization of systems or processes that are well understood, widely studied, or minor variations of known ones are discouraged. Authors should include statements in a separate section "Justification for Publication" of how the manuscript fits the scope of the journal in the cover letter to the editors. Submissions without such justification will be rejected without review.
