PostConsumer r-PET Trials from Bottle&Tray Mix for Foam Board Production

For Armacell, the challenges related to recycling PET tray material are the low intrinsic viscosity (IV), the frequent use of multilayer sheets in packaging trays and other contaminations coming from the mixed plastic household waste collection. To achieve the correct mechanical properties for the PET foam boards, it is essential to limit raw material variations and to master material melt viscosity and pressure in the extruder. With a combination of adapted processing parameters, as well as new melt modifier formulation, it is possible to produce foam boards from tray-PET that have a comparable quality to foam boards produced from bottle PET. Attached, different properties and results from the tested postconsumer material and the foam board produced are presented sown to the H2020 PlastiCircle Project.
