At the K 2019 exhibition site, listen to Bengt Rimark of Rapid Granulator and Bob Maughan of SABIC talk about new recycling technologies and developments. #kshow

K 2019 is an ideal place for new technologies and innovations. Many different companies in the entire supply chain discussed the progress of recycling at the show, which made me very excited! 

In the second part of my recycling video series, Bengt Rimark of Rapid Granulator discusses how the company's new machine provides molders with greater flexibility in low-speed mode. He also highlighted a series of other new granulators displayed at K 2019.

Bob Maughan of SABIC highlighted the company's series of advanced packaging materials and technical solutions at K 2019 to help manufacturers create sustainable packaging options to improve performance and reduce waste.

External wood fiber composite materials, such as decks and railings, did not reach the long, maintenance-free lifespan that some earlier claimed.

The mixing and extruding of wood fibers in a plastic matrix is ​​technically demanding. It requires careful attention to formula, drying and extrusion temperature

Twin screw extrusion is the preferred method for compounding PLA and other biopolymers. But processing PLA is complicated because it is sensitive to heat and shear. If there is moisture in molten PLA, it is also prone to hydrolytic degradation. The following are the test results of a machine manufacturer.
