Adipic acid is an important building block of polymers, and is commercially produced by
thermo-catalytic oxidation of ketone-alcohol oil (a mixture of cyclohexanol and …

Nonbiodegradable plastics with inert and saturated C–C backbones comprise the majority of
global annual plastics produced, including the ubiquitous polyolefins (polyethylene and …

Electrosynthesis of adipic acid (a precursor for nylon-66) from KA oil (a mixture of
