“…Different liquid-phase extraction techniques are nowadays available, and many of these have been used to extract compounds from polymers, such as polypropylene and polyethylene, and sometimes rubbers. The conventional methods include stirring [17,18], refluxing [5,19,20], Soxhlet [11,[21][22][23][24][25][26][27], and sonication [28]. More recently, accelerated-solvent extraction (ASE) [29][30][31] and microwave-assisted solvent extraction (MASE) [32] have been introduced.…”
