Descripción

General description

Benzoic acid is an organic acid that is used as an antimicrobial agent, flavoring agent and preservative in its sodium salt form.

Application

• Photochemical Aerobic Upcycling of Polystyrene Plastics.: Benzoic acid is utilized in a novel photocatalytic process for the upcycling of polystyrene plastics. This study showcases its application in sustainable chemistry, focusing on the efficient breakdown and recycling of polymer materials (Skolia et al., 2024).
