  1. 1. Risk assessment of non-intentionally added substances in polyester yarn made from recycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET)

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på grundnivå, KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Författare :Kristina Arnqvist; [2023]
    Nyckelord :r-PET; polyester yarn; NIAS; risk assessment;

    Sammanfattning : Polyester is a synthetic material made from polyethylene terephthalate (PET), which is synthesised from fossil raw materials. Many clothing manufacturers are using polyester in their clothing, which, from an environmental perspective, creates a non-sustainable cycle. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Quality Assurance of Recycled HDPE in the Plastic Packaging Industry

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Innovation

    Författare :Tora Abrahamsson; Juliana Kalling; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Thermoforming; Plastics; Recycling; Packaging Industry; HDPE; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : The recycling of plastic has the potential to support circular material use, thus decreasing the need for virgin plastics. However, there is an existing issue with assuring quality of recycled plastic materials, causing finished products to perform with poorer properties and unexpected deviations. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Investigation of acidic chemical recycling of poly(acetal-ester)s

    Magister-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Författare :Saga Vesterbacka; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Poly actetal-ester s; Chemical plastic recycling; Hydrolysis; Acidic degradation; Akestra; PHVT; Re-polymerization; Polymer technology; Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Plastic recycling is a very relevant topic from both environmental and economic viewpoints. Chemical plastic recycling is a logical solution to the plastic problems, which shows the potential to reduce plastic waste and carbon emissions from burning the plastics. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Sustainable Polymer Production: Investigating Synthesis and Copolymerization of Cyclic Ketene Acetals

    Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/Kemiteknik

    Författare :Soufian Bourraman; Stella Staffas; Adam Brandt; Simon Isaksson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Monomers; polymers; radical; radical ring opening polymerization; polymerization; BMDO; MMA; MVL; MBL; comonomer; copolymer; rROP; sustainable; biobased; degradable; monomer synthesis; plastic; polyester; bulk; solution; NMR; FTIR; TGA; DSC; SEC; hydrolysis; molecular weight; diol; ester bonds;

    Sammanfattning : The large amount of non-degradable plastic waste has become a significant environmental concern, leading to an increased need for degradable plastics. Here in, to create degradable polymers, polyesters were produced through radical ring opening polymerization using cyclic ketene acetals. LÄS MER
