Free webinar: upgrading recycled plastics
17th June. Madeline Daecher & Dean Dodaro, Polyvel, a leading compounder. How to restore properties of recycled polymers. Plastics recycling is developing rapidly worldwide, driven by value-chain sustainability objectives, public policies and by virgin resource costs. But plastic recycle streams present challenges such as polymer degradation, odour, contaminants (including brominated flame retardants) … Targeted additive packages can stabilise and compatibilise mixed feedstocks, restore polymers (chain extenders), enhance mechanical and aesthetic properties, control smell, and ensure fire safety, as well as being compatible with repeated recycling. Madeline Daecher and Dean Dodar are experts in technical product development and services, regulatory and sustainability at Polyvel, a US-based compounder specialised in additive masterbatches and custom formulations.
