The method heats long carbon chains from milk cartons, food containers and plastic bags then quickly cool them, turning them into surfactants to be used in soaps, detergents and more.
A team led by Virginia Tech researchers has developed a new method for upcycling plastics into high-value chemicals known as surfactants, which are used to create soap, detergent and more.
