K 2025 preview unveils cutting-edge plastics tech: low-carbon materials, advanced recycling, smart thermoplastics, and EV-ready polycarbonates.

Smart hydrogels are evolving from lab concepts to real-world tools, showing trends in biomedicine, robotics, and sustainable applications.

Metal-free laminates have high packaging barrier properties while simplifying the recycling process, offering a sustainable solution without compromising functionality.

Ct-Cel (made from chitin and cellulose) is an efficient, eco-friendly solution for tackling microplastic pollution in water. Its removal efficiency is up to 99.9%.

Secondary compounds enhance biopolymers’ antimicrobial, antioxidant, and mechanical properties for food preservation.

Flexible electronics have emerged as a transformative force in modern technology, meeting demands for adaptable, lightweight, and wearable devices.

Avantium and Studio Hoogvliet Jongerius showcase the versatility and beauty of PEF (Polyethylene Furanoate).

Reverse engineering (RE) in plastics processing has become an essential method for product reproduction, improvement, and optimization. It involves a thorough understanding of the design, manufacturing, assembly, and maintenance stages.

Sustainability or design for the environment was almost always considered at the end of the design process. This can no longer be the case; sustainability is no longer about the environment. It is the environment. 

Researchers from the University of Sussex have developed a revolutionary bioelectronic skin (e-skin) that promises to reshape the future of health monitoring.
