The stages of processing plastic waste residue into commercial products are almost completely identical to the main stages of recycling, say, plastic bottles.
Differences appear at the granulation stage, when it is necessary to
• equalize the melting temperature of various polymers,
• improve cohesion,
• safely dispose of the resulting gases, etc.
At the extrusion stage, the main distinguishing tasks are
• the process of forming a suspension at high pressure,
• creating polar nuclei for the formation of nanocavities using non-meltable and soluble inclusions, which subsequently act as a filler (up to 30%),
• injecting foamed polymer, which eliminates shrinkage during solidification, etc.
Upon completion of the patenting, we will be happy to publish the features of this technology.
