A process for recycling thermoplastic polymer material to produce polymer pre-form, the process comprising the steps of pre-treating a polymer material for example by separating, sorting, cleaning and/or shaping; shredding the pre-treated polymer to produce polymer flakes; and processing the polymer material to produce a pre-form, characterised in that prior to the step (iii) of producing the pre-form, the polymer flakes are compacted to form pellets.

An earth plant-based compostable biodegradable composition for the formation of a bioplastic and method of producing said resin, the composition comprising: about 17.5 to 45% ethanol-based green polyethylene by weight, about 20 to 25% calcium carbonate by weight, about 2 to 12% hemp hurd or soy protein by weight, about 32 to 45% starch by weight, and about 0.5 to 1% biodegradation additive by weight to enable biodegradation and composting of the bioplastic; wherein the composition is produced by first mill grinding the ethanol-based green polyethylene, calcium carbonate, hemp hurd or soy protein, starch and the biodegradation additive into fine powders, then mechanically mixing the fine powders one by one into a final mixture for about 5-25 minutes at a time, dry and without heat, and then heating the final mixture to about 220 to 430 degrees Fahrenheit.

The present invention includes method of making a chemisorbed graphene oxide polymer composite comprising the steps of: placing a monomer and graphene oxide into a ball mill; milling the monomer with a carbon additive to produce a physisorbed monomer graphene oxide material; placing the physisorbed monomer graphene oxide material into a polymerization chemical reactor, wherein the physisorbed monomer graphene oxide is converted to chemisorbed monomer graphene oxide; and reacting the monomer carbon additive with other monomers or prepolymers to polymerize the materials to form a chemisorbed carbon polymer composite.

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.

The invention is directed to an apparatus for making a finished rubber mixture which includes a reactive additive. The apparatus includes a tandem mixer with an upper machine having an upper mixing chamber and a lower machine having a lower mixing chamber. The lower mixing chamber is larger than the upper mixing chamber and there are rotors disposed in each mixing chamber. Mixture components are introduced into the lower mixing chamber via a loading shaft of a loading unit. The loading unit has at least two metering devices, a cutting or preheating unit connected upstream of a metering device and a first conveyor belt to the loading shaft. All conveyor belts of the apparatus can be switched on and off automatically, such that mixture components weighed in can be held in a “wait position” thereon.

A melting device includes a container capable of melting a material supplied in a free-flowing state and storing the material in a liquid state. The container includes a first storage section for storing the material in the free-flowing state, a second storage section for storing the material in the liquid state, and a dividing section provided between the first storage section and the second storage section and configured to hold back the material, when the material is in a non-molten or free-flowing state and to allow passage of the material from the first storage section into the second storage section, when the material is in a molten or liquid state.
