Plastics are characterized by their lightness, versatility, and durability, which simplifies the packaging of food and the transport of products. For this and more, plastic has become an essential tool for all types of industries. However, it is undeniable that environmental problems have been directly related to its excessive use. Find out everything you need …
Polymers are divided into two types: thermoplastics which are characterized by being flexible or deformable at high temperatures, so they can be melted and reformed several times to recycle the plastic; and thermosets, which are materials that are easy to mold at high temperatures, but cannot be re-melted because they burn, making it impossible to …
High-density polyethylene is a thermoplastic polymer obtained by the polymerization of ethylene. Different industries choose this material for its excellent resistance to traction, impact, ultraviolet radiation, corrosion, and different types of temperature or climatic conditions. One of the most remarkable characteristics of the polyethylene bottle is that it is a 100% recyclable material. However, it …
HDPE plastic is a polymer that is obtained by melding, this means that different ethylene units are added to its composition. It is plastic resistant to impacts, traction, and different temperatures. In addition, HDPE plastic offers different industries the ease of printing, painting, and gluing on it, which facilitates the customization of products. For these …
Undoubtedly, finding a container that meets the necessary standards to transport and personalize a product is very important for the industry. To achieve great results, it is very important to know what the best packaging material is and all the benefits it offers us. Currently, the PET bottle is one of the most used containers …
In recent years, plastic jerrycans have become an essential tool for the industry. Thanks to their high resistance, they are frequently used to store and transport all kinds of products. An essential factor to achieve this resistance is the material used for its manufacture: High-density polyethylene, without a doubt, provides endless qualities such as hardness …
Currently, it is very common to hear about the importance of plastic recycling for the care of the environment, since there is a generally negative perception of plastic, and many people think that is a harmful material. However, this material offers many possibilities and advantages to different sectors within the industry. It is important to …
Currently, it is very common to hear about the importance of plastic recycling for the care of the environment. It is very important to keep in mind that not all plastics are the same and, just as their uses are so different, so are their recycling possibilities. This means that to make better use of …
To optimize the plastic circularity, it is essential to evaluate that the recycled materials have sufficient quality to produce new products. Meaning it is necessary to analyze that they do not lose properties such as lightness, flexibility, and resistance (to impact or high temperatures). Therefore, for the resin created with recycled materials to be competitive …
Climate change is one of the main concerns today, the rise in temperature worldwide has brought different negative changes, such as the displacement and disappearance of flora and fauna. This international concern has forced organizations to consider possible solutions to this growing problem.
