“…79 Early results were reported on the pyrolysis of PTFE at 600 °C and under vacuum (7 × 10 2 Pa), releasing 97% of TFE. 106,107 Under an atmospheric pressure of 1.103 × 10 5 Pa, this yield dropped to only 16%, whereas that of HFP and c-C 4 F 8 increased. More recently, Kaminsky 108 carried out the pyrolysis in a fluidised bed, under normal pressure with nitrogen as the fluidising gas at various temperatures.…”
Herein, we present the state of the art technology on the recycling, reuse, thermal decomposition, and the life cycle assessment of fluoropolymers (FPs, ranging from PTFE and PVDF to various fluorinated copolymers based on VDF and TFE).

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
