ENHANCE the circularity of plastics with IrgaCycle® additive solutions designed for the mechanical recycling process
After the washing stage, the dried flakes are fed into an extruder where they are melted, promoting the homogenization and consequently the plastification of the material. It is during this process that plastic waste is susceptible to oxidative and thermal degradation.
Rejuvenating recycled plastics with IrgaCycle® additive solutions
Virgin plastic polymers are designed only for production and usage only. To prevent problems when mechanically recycling plastics it is therefore advisable to use tailored additives solutions to tackle impurities, gel formation, mechanical problems and melt-flow fluctuations. IrgaCycle® additive solutions are specifically tailored for these challenges
Our additive solutions allow
- Brand owners to achieve their circular economy and sustainability targets
- Plastic converters to incorporate more recycled content
- Mechanical recyclers to improve recyclate quality and processability
