The present invention relates to a multilayer structure at least an outer layer and an inner layer which contain a polypropylene resin as a main component, a barrier resin layer containing an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer as a main component, and a metal deposited layer containing aluminum as a main component; a packaging material for a retort therewith; a method for recovering the multilayer structure; and a recovered composition comprising a recovered material of the multilayer structure. There is provided a multilayer structure exhibiting excellent recyclability and excellent appearance, gas barrier ability and shading performance both before and after retorting treatment, and a packaging material for a retort therewith.

An example extrusion blow molding (EBM) method includes extruding first and second colors of plastic to form a parison that includes an inner layer of the first color of plastic, and an outer layer of the second color of plastic. The parison is placed in a mold, the mold is closed, and the parison is inflated to create a blow molded structure. A portion of an interior of the blow molded structure is formed of the first color of plastic, and a portion of an exterior of the blow molded structure is formed of a blend of the first color of plastic and the second color of plastic.

In a method for reprocessing film waste material, the film waste material is comminuted into recycling material by means of a comminuting device. The recycling material is fed by means of a feeding device in a multi-shaft screw machine. In the multi-shaft screw machine, the recycling material is plasticized into a material melt and processed into raw material. The raw material may again be fed to a production installation for the production of films.

A blow molded part is provided that includes a first portion consisting of a reinforced resin and a second portion consisting of a non-reinforced resin. The reinforced resin may be fiber-reinforced, and the non-reinforced resin may be a neat resin. In one form, the first portion and the second portion define first and second trim areas, respectively, and the second trim area is directly recyclable. In another form, the second portion comprises a material consisting of a non-reinforced resin and/or a reinforced resin, where the modulus of elasticity of the first portion is higher than the modulus of elasticity of the second portion. Furthermore, a method of forming a blow molded part is provided.

A process for preparing a composite part, the process comprising: recovering unsaturated resin prepreg scrap; combining the recovered unsaturated resin prepreg scrap with a second resinous thermosetting component; and co-molding the prepreg scrap and resinous thermosetting component together under a pressure of 25 to 4000 psi and at a temperature of 100-400° F.

A tubular molded body that can reduce restrictions on attachment to another member to be easily attached to another member. The tubular molded body 10 includes a tube main body 11 formed in a tubular shape and an attachment flange 100 formed in a flange shape to project from the tube main body 11. The attachment flange 100 includes a thin-walled hinge 130 and is rotatable by the hinge.

A process arrangement and a process for the production of a fiber-reinforced plastics component made of at least one continuous-fiber-reinforced semifinished textile fiber product with reactive thermoplastic matrix material, where during the manufacture of the semifinished fiber product trimming residues (m.sub.R, m.sub.A) arise, composed of a composite made of fibers and of the reactive thermoplastic matrix material, and during finishing of the finished plastics component final-trimming residues (m.sub.E) arise, composed of a composite of fibers and of polymerized thermoplastic matrix material, and are further processed in a recycling unit to give a recyclate. The trimming residues arising during the manufacture of the semifinished fiber product are polymerized in a preparatory unit and then are delivered in the invention to the recycling unit.

A method for producing low density polyester foam utilizing low I.V. polyester feedstock includes providing a low intrinsic viscosity raw material. The low intrinsic viscosity raw material includes between 25% to 100% of a post consumer polyester and has an intrinsic viscosity of less than 0.8 dl/g. The intrinsic viscosity of the low intrinsic viscosity raw material is increased via a de-condensation reaction configured to support foaming. The intrinsic viscosity of the low intrinsic viscosity raw material is increased to 1.1 dl/g or greater. A starting formulation is created including the low intrinsic viscosity raw material with the increased intrinsic viscosity. The starting formulation is foamed to create the polyester foam. Wherein, the polyester foam produced has a specific gravity of less than 0.65 g/cc.
