Composites of Recycled Polymer for Structural Applications

COMPOSITES OF RECYCLED
POLYMER FOR STRUCTURAL
APPLICATIONS

Introduction
Recovered plastics are conventionally
separated into types of polymers as
then used in the production of second
grade pallets.
The range of applications of such
pallets is limited as a result of
minimal properties as well as the
possibility of contamination that
prevents them from being used ion
food contact application

Literature review
Polymers come with numerous
advantages in comparison with the
conventional materials that are used
for structural applications.
The use of recycle materials result in
a significant reduction in the cost
even though the formulation as well
as production of polymers may be
challenging to address the natural
variability in feedstock.
