Fraunhofer validates solvent and glycolysis routes that convert contaminated packaging waste into textile-grade PP and PET fibers.

Polymer electrolytes boost aluminum-air batteries with safer, leakproof, high-energy performance, unlocking aviation and aerospace electrification.

In high-loading Glass fiber–reinforced polypropylene composites, dispersion, not chemistry, determines flame-retardant performance.

From polymer processing to vitrimers, Ica Manas-Zloczower’s story highlights mentorship, persistence, and ANTEC recognition.

AI-assisted polymer design screens millions of candidates to identify chemically recyclable packaging polymers that still meet barrier and thermal targets.

Film defects are process signals. Connect die flow, cooling symmetry, and winding stress to improve gauge control and roll quality.

PLA PHA compatibilization for blown film can widen processing windows and improve toughness. See why morphology and moisture control matter.

Drawing on sedimentology, researchers have proposed a novel classification scheme for plastic waste of all sizes.

Polyolefins define modern plastics, but their chemical stability now drives a new search for smarter transformation pathways

Green coagulation and nanocellulose foams improve microplastic removal, yet integration challenges include clogging and media handling.
