Återvinning av polymerer är nödvändig för hållbar livsföring och miljöförvaltning, och mekanisk återvinning har fördelen av mycket lägre energi- och materialförbruking jämfört med kemisk och fysisk återvinning. Ett framträdande problem med mekanisk återvinning är emellertid förkortningen av polymerkedjor som sker under deras livstid. Tekniken Reactive Recycling™ av Nexam Chemical innebär att återvRecycling of polymers is necessary for sustainable living and environmental stewardship, and mechanical recycling has the advantage of much lower energy and material demand compared to chemical and physical recycling.
