The development of environmentally benign catalytic processes that utilize polymers and plastics as recyclable carbon resources is an urgent issue. Our research group has been developing high-performance heterogeneous catalysts for various functional group transformations. Based on these functional group transformations, degradation of various polymers such as polyesters and polyethers and upcycling to valuable chemicals using solid catalysts will be shown.
