Overview

As the market for recycled plastics continues to expand, manufacturers face growing issues in ensuring material quality and controlling production processes. This webinar introduces multifaceted analytical solutions designed to support quality assurance and process optimization in the use of recycled plastics.

The three-part webinar covers analytical solutions for ensuring the quality, consistency, and process control of recycled plastics in food-grade PET applications, the evaluation of property changes in PC/ABS resins caused by differences in molding conditions, and a rapid and simple approach for quantifying the size and amount of microscopic foreign matter in recycled plastics. Through case studies using recycled PET resins, PC/ABS materials and recycled PET pellets, the sessions demonstrate how multifaceted analysis using various analytical instruments supports quality evaluation and reliable use of recycled plastics.

Key Learning Objectives:
  • Learn how advanced analytical solutions support quality, consistency, and process control in recycled plastics.
  • Gain insight into the multifaceted evaluation of plastics, including property changes caused by differences in plastic molding conditions.
  • Explore practical approaches to material characterization, contamination detection, and rapid quantification of microscopic foreign matter.
Who Should Attend:
