Abstract
In this work, titanium carbide (TiC) nanoparticles have been successfully synthesized at much lower temperatures of 500°C using cheaper starting materials, such as waste polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) (carbon source) and titanium and metallic sodium, than the traditional carbothermal reduction of TiO2 at 1,800°C. An XRD pattern proved the formation of face-centered cubic TiC, and TEM images showed the obtained TiC nanoparticles with an average size of approximately 50 nm. In addition, the separator coated with TiC nanoparticles as an active material of interlayer effectively mitigates the shuttling problem by taming the polysulfides in Li–S batteries compared with a traditional celgard separator. The assembled cell realizes good cycling stability with 501 mAh g−1 and a low capacity fading of 0.1% per cycle after 300 cycles at 1 C due to high utilization of the sulfur-based active species.

Abstract
Plastic products have brought us great convenience in our daily life and work. But in the meantime, waste plastics have become solid pollutants in the environment due to its poor degradability. The resource utilization of waste plastic can decrease environmental pollution. Here, a thermal reduction method for the conversion of waste polyethylene to ZnCCo3 and ZnCNi3 in a stainless-steel autoclave under mild conditions has been reported. X-ray powder diffraction patterns indicate that the obtained samples are anti-perovskite-structured ternary carbides (ZnCCo3 and ZnCNi3) with good crystallinity. Moreover, the formation mechanism of ternary carbides has been briefly discussed. This method can be developed into an effective method for disposal of other waste plastics.
