Continuous, highly precise, metal-free polymerisation of PLA using alternative energies for reactive extrusion (InnoREX)

Start date: Dec 1, 2012, End date: May 31, 2016,

The demand for biobased polymers is growing fast. According to the current state of the art, metal-containing catalysts are needed to improve the polymerisation rate of lactones, posing a hazard to health and the environment. InnoREX will develop a novel reactor concept using alternative energies for the continuous, highly precise, metal-free polymerisation of PLA.In InnoREX, metal-containing cata ...

Study of recyclability of printed or laminated plastic packaging films using supercritical C02 technologies (CLIPP)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2012,

"This project aims to promote the “valuable recycling resource” concept for industrial painted and laminated packages (injected parts and extruded films), nowadays considered as a problem, promoting their recycling in the original application (closed loop cycle) and minimizing the environmental risks and impacts. The CLIPP Recycling System for printed and laminated plastic fraction, will contribut ...
