A polyester film and a method for manufacturing the polyester film are provided. The method for manufacturing a polyester film by using a recycled plastic material includes the following steps. A part of the recycled plastic material is physically reproduced to obtain a physically regenerated polyester resin. Another part of the recycled plastic material is chemically reproduced to obtain a chemically regenerated polyester resin. A polyester composition including the physically regenerated polyester resin and the chemically regenerated polyester resin is prepared. Based on a total weight of the polyester composition being 100 wt %, a weight of the chemically regenerated polyester resin is larger than or equal to 5 wt %. The polyester film is manufactured by using the polyester composition. Based on a total weight of the polyester film being 100 wt %, a total amount of the physically regenerated polyester resin and the chemically regenerated polyester resin is from 10 wt % to 100 wt %.

A system for fusing plastic materials without bonding agents, such as adhesives, etc., is disclosed. A heat press is used to apply heat and pressure to plastic material sandwiched between heat resistant material. A flatbed heat press, a rotary heat press, or other similar type of thermal roller system may be used. Heat is applied to at least one side of the sandwich and may be applied to both sides of the sandwich simultaneously with equal pressure for a given amount of time. Dual thermostats may be used for application of different beat levels on opposite sides of the sandwich. Reinforcement materials, such as mesh or reinforcement fibers, may be integrated within the layers of plastic prior to fusion to enhance the integrity and/or aesthetic qualities of the fused end product. The plastic may be subjected to multiple applications of heat and pressure to optimize the fusion process.

Method of recycling a textile material which comprises cellulose for manufacturing regenerated cellulosic molded bodies, wherein in the method the textile material is comminuted, at least a part of non-fiber-constituents of the comminuted textile material is separated from fiber-constituents of the comminuted textile material, at least a part of non-cellulosic fibers of the fiber-constituents is mechanically separated from cellulosic fibers of the fiber-constituents, at least a further part of the non-cellulosic fibers is chemically separated from the cellulosic fibers, and the molded bodies are generated based on the cellulosic fibers after mechanically separating and chemically separating.
