Recycling process:chemical recycling,physical recycling,energy recycling etc.
Type | Method | Recycled product | Application |
Chemical recycling | Pyrolysis,alcoholysis,hydrolysis etc. | Pyrolysis gas,pyrolysis oil,CaCO3,glass fiber etc. | Fuel and composite materials. |
Physical recycling | Pulverize,grind | Powder | Composite materials,roadbed materials. |
Energy recycling | Incinerate | Heat,CaCO3,glass fiber | Raw material for cement |
Molecular structure difference between thermoplasfics and thermosets
Thermoplastic molecular structure Linear polymer:weak molecular bonds in a straight-chain formation | Thermosetting plastic molecular structure Network polymers:high level of cross-linking with strong chemical molecular bonds |
