Recycling of Polymer Materials: Polyethylene – Polylactide

Synthetic polymers, which are petroleum products, deserve special attention because catastrophic quantity of household plastic waste. In this connection, it discusses reuse of polymers for the manufacturing of household purposes’’ articles. For example, system low density polyethylene – polylactide has been shown experimentally that the use of secondary polyethylene in an amount of 30 % by weight does not impair the necessary technological characteristics: elongation and tensile strength remain within critical limits. By differential scanning calorimetry method specified melting point and degree of crystallinity of the blend components. In addition, polylactide – a biodegradable polymer derived from renewable raw materials, agriculture production waste, use of which may have a positive impact on the ecological conditions.
