A Quick Look at the Process of Pipe and Profile Extrusion.

Here is a quick overview of how plastic extrusion works. This article will specifically cover plastic profile extrusion but many of the concepts apply to plastic sheet extrusion. The plastic begins by arriving at the factory in large quantities in either boxes or bags. Depending on the material, an employee might need to place the pellets in a dryer to remove any excess moisture and also preheat the raw material so that it melts easier. [ 339 more words ]

A quick look at the basics of pipe and profile plastic extrusion. Here we will discuss how the material is turn from pellets/powder to a final product.

While previous studies have found that adding plastics to concrete can weaken the material, exposing plastic to doses of gamma radiation makes the material’s crystalline structure change, resulting in a stronger, stiffer and tougher plastic. The researchers hypothesised that this could lead to a stronger final concrete material.

They analysed their concrete samples with X-ray diffraction, backscattered electron microscopy and X-ray microtomography. The images revealed crystalline structures with more molecular connections that blocked pores within the concrete, making it denser and therefore stronger.

The team found that substituting 1.5 per cent of concrete with irradiated plastic could significantly improve its strength.

Concrete infused with plastic can create stronger, more flexible structures, reducing the material’s global carbon footprint and redirecting plastics from landfill, according to a study by MIT students. Stemming from a class research project, Caroline Schaefer …

Ecovative products...are grown from mycelium—networks of fungal or mushroom roots. In nature, fungi break down waste, such as old leaves, dead plants, and pieces of wood, and use it to propagate.

Ecovative harnesses this natural process and grows the mycelium into various shapes and structures, from pieces of furniture to packaging materials like MycoFoam, its trademarked Styrofoam substitute.

Plastic has become ubiquitous in our home and work lives, but is a pollutant that won't break down. Mushrooms may provide a sustainable alternative.

"Our designs are comfortable and, most importantly custom built for a fraction of the cost."

A prosthetic hand, for example, will cost between $3,000-4000, while a 3D printed hand, made from recycled plastic, will cost around $200.

So far, the team has created a prosthetic leg, finger and hand.

They've already created a prosthetic leg, finger and hand.

The city of Amsterdam has unveiled two 3D printed sofas, each made up of 3,000 plastic bags, as part of its new ‘Recycling Exhibition’. On display at the townhall last month, this one of a kind exhibition serves to showcase Amsterdam’s ongoing commitment towards building a more sustainable city, as well as highlighting the important role 3D printing plays in that effort.

The city of Amsterdam has unveiled two 3D printed sofas, each made up of 3,000 plastic bags, as part of its new 'Circulaire Expositie' ( 'Recycling Exhibition'). On display at the Stadhuis until October 26th, this exhibition serves to showcase Amsterdam's commitment towards building a sustainable ci...

Jeans made from Future Black+ denim contain as many as 17 recycled plastic bottles and feature superior softness, colour retention and stretch, while minimising the impact on the environment.

The Lenzing manufacturing process requires less chemical and energy inputs during manufacturing, and uses 64% less water during the dye process. Together, these earth-friendly fibres aim to create a high performing, highly sustainable denim.

Leaders in textile sustainability, Cone Denim, Lenzing and Unifi, are collaborating on the launch of Future Black+ denim featuring Lenzing Modal branded fibres and Repreve Black recycled fibres.

Reducing the number of plastic pellets that get lost is not the only subject on which the sector is concentrating. More sustainable production and processing of polymers is also high on the agenda. To achieve this, a consultative platform was recently set up at which the participants exchange best practices for making the plastics sector more sustainable.

Plastics are found everywhere in modern life. The raw materials of which plastic products are made are polymers, usually delivered in the form of small pellets.
