Plastics are a pain. They are very useful during their product life but once disposed they don’t degrade naturally, and this creates huge problems in terms of waste disposal. Researchers in India have ...

In news that offers hope that human civilization won’t end up drowning in soda bottles and plastic wrap, Chinese chemists have developed a remarkably efficient method for converting polyethylene into ...

A team of researchers just found a way to literally turn trash into treasure — by discovering a new chemical process that transforms plastic trash into liquid fuels and waxes. A new paper in Sciences ...

Researchers in India have developed a relatively low-temperature process to convert certain kinds of plastic waste into liquid fuel as a way to reuse discarded plastic bags and other products.

Plastics are valued for their durability, but that quality also makes them difficult to break down. Tiny pieces of debris known as microplastics persist in soil, water and air and threaten ecosystems ...

Dosing liquid materials like colorants is most common in injection molding and extrusion. The innovative, high-quality gravimetric dosing system for liquid material proves that efficient use of liquid ...

In comparison to semi-crystalline, amorphous thermoplastic materials are available in a wider color range as they are transparent. However, all plastics can be made/are available in a wide range of ...
