Recycled PolyAl beverage cartons are finding new life as design-forward furniture.

Researchers are fine-tuning computer vision systems to help identify and sort plastic waste on construction sites.

A new PVC chemical recycling process converts mixed PVC and polyolefin waste into chlorine-free gasoline-range fuels at low temperatures.

Europe’s PVC industry boosts circularity, increasing recycled PVC use despite weak demand, cutting emissions and supporting sustainable manufacturing.

This polymer-based soil stabilization method shows potential for stabilizing landslide deposits in complex geological environments, such as southeastern Tibet.

PVC extends from flexible, RF-weldable coated fabrics to rigid, load-bearing profiles in buildings and flooring systems.

Hyphyn introduces enzyme-driven PVC biodegradation, achieving over 90% breakdown under ASTM D5511; however, real-world landfill validation remains pending.

Turning mixed plastic waste into hydrogen fuel and carbon nanomaterials for H₂ engines and advanced lubricant additives.

Plasticizer migration erodes performance and elevates compliance risk in PVC products. To counter this, surface engineering gives manufacturers direct, interface-level control.

Hybrid stabilizers and smart extrusion enhance PVC pipe durability, recyclability, and energy efficiency for a sustainable future.
