Mixture of functional additives for recycling PA, PET and other engineering thermoplastic waste.

Besides being environment friendly and reducing CO₂ emissions, PA, PET and other ETP recycling can be an important factor of increased profitability for compounders and processors. This should be an enticer further to world Directives such as the Waste Framework Directive objective of achieving 50% recycling by 2020 in the E.U.

However, regranulation alone is not sufficient to meet high value requirements mainly due to:

• Degradation and unsuitable molecular weight
  
• Discoloration (Thermo-oxidative damage)
  
• Unsuitable processing behavior
  
• Inability to match mechanical properties
  
• Missing performance additives
  
• Various incompatibilities
  

Bruggolen^® R recycling additives improve the polyolefin recycling processes and help recyclers to produce higher value polyolefine recyclates for long term applications. For the first time the new repairing technology allows to repair damages from prior use.

BRUGGOLEN^® benefits:

• New repair chemistry for polyolefins
• Significantly increased recyclate quality
• Recyclates match virgin grade properties
