1. Compatibilization of recycled polypropylene and recycled poly (ethylene terephthalate) blends with SEBS-g-MA
Abstract The compatibilization of recycled PP/PET blend with high and low concentration (20 and 5 phr) of elastomer functionalized by maleic anhydride (SEBS-g-MA) was achieved. Recycled polypropylene from plastic industry and recycled PET from post-consumer bottles was used. PP/PET blends: 80:20 w/w, 50:50 w/w and 20:80 w/w were prepared in an internal mixe

2. Evaluation of chemical and mechanical resistance of virgin and recycled poly (ethylene terephthalate) and poly(methylene oxide) when applied as gravel pack in petroleum wells
AbstractNowadays more and more unexpected uses for common materials have been observed, especially when recycled polymers are concerned. In this work, the viability for application of virgin and recycled poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PETvir and PETrec, respectively) and also poly(methylene oxide) (PMO) as granular materials (gravel) for gravel packing in san

3. The Recycling of Sugarcane Fiber/Polypropylene Composites
Mechanical recycling is utilized to reuse waste and obtain other plastic products via the reprocessing of a material in industrial equipment. Natural fiber composites have become more popular in recent years; however, these composites' mechanical behavior remains less well-understood than single polymers’ behavior after recycling. Therefore, the objective

4. Recycling assessment of multilayer flexible packaging films using design of experiments
AbstractThe viability of recycling post-industrial packaging waste, compounded from multilayer laminated PET-PE films, for production of polymer blends with good physico-mechanical performance is analyzed. Initially, several PET-PE model-blends were prepared from fresh polymers and were compounded with different formulations, based on design of experiments (

5. Comparison of polymers and ceramics in new and discarded electrical insulators: reuse and recycling possibilities
The expansion and maintenance of electricity distribution networks generates large amounts of waste, much of it in the form of discarded insulators that are not reused or recycled. This paper describes the results of tests on used and new ceramic and polymeric insulators to verify if their exposure to weathering justifies their replacement. In new and used c

6. Application of cationic hemicelluloses produced from corn husk as polyelectrolytes in sewage treatment
Hemicelluloses were extracted from corn husk and converted into cationic hemicelluloses using 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride. The degree of substitution was determined as 0.43 from results of elemental analysis. The cationic derivative was also characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and Carbon-13 magnetic nuclear ressonance. The

7. Avaliação dos tipos de processamento na descontaminação e na degradação do polipropileno reciclado / Evaluation of types of processing in the decontamination and degradation of recycled polypropylene
Polypropylene is one of the most used polymers worldwide, especially by the disposable packaging industry, causing serious environmental problems. Despite the fact that recycling this polymer has become common in Brazil due to its growing market, there are still some restrictions regarding its use in direct-contact food packaging. Therefore, in order to eval

9. Production and evaluation of recycled polymers from açaí fibers
The possibility of recycling and the favorable mechanical properties of the products have encouraged the study and production of thermoplastic composites from natural fibrous waste. Açaí (cabbage palm) fiber, which is removed from the seed, has been slightly investigated, as compared to what is already known about the fruit pulp. In this study, the influen

10. Estudo da viabilidade da aplicação de PET reciclado como agente de contenção de areia em poços de petróleo / Study of the viability of the application of recycled PET as sand control agent in oil wells
This work analyses the viability of applying recycled poly(ethylene terephthalate), PET, as sand control agent, using virgin PET and poly(methylene oxide), POM, for comparison means. The polymer samples were characterized by carbon-13 magnetic nuclear resonance (13C-NMR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermal gravimetric analysis (TG), scanning el

11. Cruzetas de polímeros reciclados: caracterização dos materiais, análise numérica e ensaios de modelos reduzidos / Recycled polymer crossarms: characterization of the materials, numerical analysis and tests in reduced models
Nowadays, wood is still the most used material in crossarms of aerial power distribution lines in Brazil. However, it has caused problems to power utilities concerning (i) degradation due to defects and attacks of fungi and insects, (II) higher operational costs to replace damaged pieces and (III) environmental problems, as the raw material has become scarce
