STUDY OF THE PROCESSABILITY OF POST-CONSUMER AND POST-INDUSTRIAL RECYCLED HIGH-IMPACT POLYSTYRENE

摘要

In this work, the process of recycling high-impact polystyrene, both post-consumer and post-industrial, was studied. Blends of recycled/virgin materials were made and their MFI, mechanical properties and processability (thermoforming) were evaluated. Few differences in the behavior of the materials were found and their use as thermoformed packaging was ascertained.
