  • Abstract
    Responding to the increase of optical disk waste, we developed a new technology for recycling disks especially for CD-R (CD write-once). This technology enables not only material recycling of the gold reflection layer and dye in the recording layer, but also reuse of polycarbonate disk substrates to produce new disks
