New frontiers in circular materials and processes

This company’s Duracircle family of circular-economy platform technologies is expanding with the future addition of several groundbreaking technologies related to plastics processing (photo): a chemical recycling technology for polyoxymethylene (POM; also known as acetal, polyacetal, and polyformaldehyde); and a solvent-based recycling process for polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) that can segregate glass-reinforced polycarbonate/PBT into its constituents. The company is also focusing development work on bio-based p-hydroxybenzoic acid (PHBA), which is a key monomer for liquid crystal polymer (LCP), and an artificial-intelligence-aided mechanical recycling technology.
