The effect of microwave irradiation way on hydrolytic depolymerization of poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET) was studied at 175°C, 180°C and 185°C. Based on this study, an additional experiment that the intermittent radiation time was one tenth of total reaction time (intermittent radiation (1/10)) was conducted to research the microwave energy utilization. The results showed that the energy efficiency increased as the temperature rose. And the energy utilization of intermittent radiation (1/10) was 16.7% higher than that of the continuous radiation at 175°C.

Poly(ethylene terephthalate) fabrics are treated with sodium hydroxide using ethylene glycol or glycerin as the solvent. Compared with conventional aqueous alkaline hydrolysis, the degradation rate in ethylene glycol increases tenfold. The kinetics of the alkaline-ethylene glycol treatment show that the weight loss is linear with respect to time. The moisture regain rate and tensile properties of the treated fabrics are measured; other tests include scanning electron microscopy and dyeing properties. The results show that the properties of the treated fabrics do not depend significantly on the solvent; therefore, using ethylene glycol can greatly shorten the treatment time to achieve results similar to those with the conventional aqueous system.
