Recycling of crosslinked foams is possible!

The Maris Technological Center has recently designed and tested a new process for the recycling of post-industrial crosslinked foam, in order to recover processing waste and reuse it in the same production cycle.
In order to convert the material back into a plastic polymer, it is necessary to break the crosslinks between chains as selectively as possible, taking care not to degrade the polymer.
The physical characteristics and the very low bulk density of this material make it necessary to use a forced feeder to facilitate the introduction of the material inside the extruder.
