Do you know all the knowledge about how to recycle waste plastics?

Pubdate: 2021-06-15

Plastic is a kind of high molecular organic compound, it is the general term of filling, plasticizing, coloring and other thermoplastic forming materials, belonging to a kind of high molecular organic polymer family.
According to the characteristics of the plastic after molding, it can be divided into two kinds of plastics: thermoplastic and thermosetting. Thermoplastic is a kind of chain linear molecular structure, which softens after being heated, and can replicate the product many times. The thermosetting plastic has a network molecular structure, which becomes permanent deformation after being processed by heat, and cannot be repeatedly processed and copied.

Common plastic product materials in daily life mainly include: polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and polyester (PET).

When the waste plastic is crushed, a suitable crusher should be selected according to its nature, such as a single, double-shaft or underwater crusher according to its softness and hardness. The degree of crushing varies greatly according to requirements. The size of 50-100mm is coarse crushing, the size of 10-20mm is fine crushing, and the size of less than 1mm is fine crushing.
There are multiple separation techniques, such as electrostatic method, magnetic method, sieving method, wind method, specific gravity method, flotation method, color separation method, X-ray separation method, near-infrared separation method, etc.
