Abstract
Model compounds of phenol resin were reacted in sub- and supercritical water to clarify the mechanism of the decomposition reaction of plastics in water. Cleavage reaction of methylene bonds was confirmed in the reactions of model compounds of phenol resin such as bis(hydroxyphenyl)methanes in sub- and supercritical water under an Ar atmosphere, although the methylene bond was stable in thermal reactions. It was also confirmed that sub- and supercritical water played important roles not only as a stable solvent thermally, but also as a chemical reagent.
