Compatibilization of Heterogeneous Polymer Mixtures from the Plastics Waste Streams

  • Chapter
Frontiers in the Science and Technology of Polymer Recycling

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSE,volume 351))

Abstract

The most economic and ecologically advantageous process to recycle plastics waste is the material recycling [1]. This simple and non-polluting method, is applicable for recycling plastics waste both of a single-type and a mixture of similar polymers. The waste may originate either from a plastics-producing plant, or from household refuse. In the latter case, it is mainly composed of plastics from the packaging sources.
