Selecting the right polypropylene grade for your project is crucial to ensuring optimal performance.

How new technologies are shaping mass production? Emerging technologies, such as 3D printing, reverse engineering, and 3D scanning, have revolutionized product design and development. 

Natural wood, while abundant and low-cost, has limited mechanical properties for certain applications. As a result, there is growing interest in engineered wood, which offers enhanced strength and durability to meet modern structural demands.

Dissolution or purification is an option for recycling polymers without altering their chemical structure while ensuring energy efficiency. Nevertheless, solvents may be an environmental concern.

Recycling fluoropolymers is complex but essential for environmental resource efficiency and several industries that depend upon their properties.

Durable plastics play an integral role in modern society, but their durability challenges their recyclability and end-of-life.

The TotalRecycle MRF in Pennsylvania led a groundbreaking project that effectively sorted and repurposed flexible plastic packaging (FPP) into marketable materials.

The rise in lightweight materials directly connects to efforts to boost fuel efficiency, cut emissions, and meet strict environmental standards.

Direct fluorination is a widely used surface treatment in the packaging industry to enhance barrier properties. However, it has recently been linked to PFAS contamination in HDPE and PP.

The Plastics Industry Association (PLASTICS) released its inaugural Plastics Demand Estimate in July 2024, starting with data from May 2024. This monthly estimate will provide regular insights into plastic trends.
