Durable plastics play an integral role in modern society, but their durability challenges their recyclability and end-of-life.

Architect Seth Amman sculpted and painted slabs of EPS foam to create a stunning ceiling in a boutique chocolate shop in Buffalo, N.Y.

Plastics Injection molding accounts for nearly 50% of all plastic processing methods. Compared to other processes like blow molding or thermoforming, it is preferred for its ability to produce complex parts with high repeatability and minimal waste.

Plastics training is a significant component of employee development. PE will present the main sources around the world to keep trained your team based on innovation and research for the industry.

Foam plastic insulation offers numerous benefits, making it an excellent choice for a variety of applications.

Fluoropolymers enhance various applications across multiple industries, including aerospace, automotive, electronics, packaging, and medical.

Why an assessment of the next gen of injection molding is needed? The global injection molding market was valued at USD 265.1 billion in 2020 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.6% from 2021 to 2028.

McCallah Ferry, a University of Akron researcher, conducted a study on granular activated carbon (GAC) filters to determine if removing PFAS from water is possible.  The research confirms that GAC filters effectively remove PFAS, ensuring safe drinking water.

Supramolecular polymers offer high-quality properties and low-viscosity melts. These features enable advanced applications such as self-healing materials and adaptive coatings.

Recycling has become a turning point for environmental sustainability, reducing waste, and conserving natural resources. However, not all materials are equally easy to recycle.
