Recent Advances in Polycarbonate Recycling: A Review of Degradation Methods and Their Mechanisms

TL;DR: In this article, the three different routes for PC recycling are: direct recycle (mechanical recycling or blending with other materials), treatment via chemical methods and thermochemical methods (pyrolysis).
Journal ArticleDOI

Facile characterization of polymer fractions from waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) for mechanical recycling

TL;DR: This research is focused on the characterization and recycling of two types of plastics, namely plastic from personal computer (grey plastic) and plastic from television (black plastic).

Fracture characterization of PC/ABS blends: effect of reactive compatibilization, ABS type and rubber concentration

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of blend composition, ABS type, sample geometry, PC molecular weight, temperature, rubber concentration and reactive compatibilization on the fracture properties of polycarbonate (PC), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) and PC/ABS blends with both standard and sharp notches was examined by standard Izod and single edge notch three point bend (SEN3PB) instrumented Dynatup tests.

Effect of reactive compatibilizers on the mechanical properties of polycarbonate/poly(acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene) blends

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of the compatibilizer additions on the morphology and mechanical properties of the polycarbonate (PC)/poly(acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene) (ABS) blends were investigated, and it was shown that the addition of epoxy at 2 phr level to the MA-grafted polypropylene and solid epoxy resin (bisphenol type-A) led to a significant increase in both tensile ductility and impact strength.

Rheological and morphological behaviour of blends of polycarbonate with unmodified and maleic anhydride grafted ABS

TL;DR: In this article, a mixture of polycarbonate (PC) and maleic anhydride grafted ABS (MABS) was prepared by melt blending, using a single-screw extruder with a special mixing head over the whole range of compositions.
