Recently, there has been an increasing demand for recycled materials. However, the recycling process itself can cause detrimental changes to the polymer chains of the plastic.
For example, properties such as the flow behaviour are impacted, particularly in recycled thermoplastics such as HDPE. This makes it very difficult to process these polymer types.
To help tackle this problem, avanMFI has been developed for recycled thermoplastics. This melt flow enhancer is based on a special blend of additives to increase the melt flow index in recycled polyolefins.

Thermoplastics are fantastic engineering materials. They are low cost, lightweight, easy to process and provide excellent durability. It’s no surprise therefore that thermoplastics are omnipresent in our lives, with the average European citizen consuming on average 50 kg per year. High time then to scrutinise thermoplastics from a sustainability standpoint.
