Internal plasticization of PVC

Patrick W. Skelly et al.

Summary: PVC, a widely used plastic, contains plasticizers that can raise health concerns. Internal plasticization, where plasticizers are covalently bound to the PVC backbone, offers a solution to the issue of plasticizer migration. Research methods mainly include nucleophilic substitution, graft polymerization, and copolymerization.

Merging shuttle reactions and paired electrolysis for reversible vicinal dihalogenations

Xichang Dong et al.

Summary: The study presents an electrochemically assisted shuttle (e-shuttle) paradigm for the facile and scalable interconversion of alkenes and vicinal dihalides, which can be used to synthesize dihalogenated molecules or recycle waste materials. The method demonstrates dibromination or dichlorination of alkenes using simple setup with inexpensive graphite electrodes. Additionally, it shows the complete dechlorination of hexachlorinated lindane to benzene using simple alkene acceptors in soil samples.
