To get the twist effect, you typically need: - Lower modulus. - Lower "resilience". The material must reach permanent deformation state easier. - Lower Melt Viscosity/ Higher Melt flow. In PP films, the “plasticizer” can be added in masterbatch form for better performance and homogeneity. Maneuvering the plasticizer chemicals are not easy task and they need to be well dispersed in a polymeric matrix. Processing will be also improved (higher output, lower energy consumption). Add only what you need! Otherwise, like a medicine, you might face negative counter effects. source : Polimerizze Technology

Motherson & PureCycle Produced Class-A Surface Automotive Bumper Prototype with 30% Recycled Polypropylene

Image
PureCycle Technologies Inc. (Nasdaq: PCT), a U.S.-based company revolutionizing plastic recycling, and the Modules & Polymer Products Division of Motherson today announced the successful production of a Class-A surface automotive bumper prototype incorporating 30% PureFive® recycled polypropylene. The two companies will share details with the global automotive and sustainability communities at the Stuttgart, Germany Startup Autobahn Expo, the world’s largest automotive innovation platform, on July 2, 2026. The bumper prototype was produced at Motherson’s facility in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, with feasibility assessment and testing led by the Global Innovation Team in Germany. The component has since undergone rigorous performance tests, including climate testing and mechanical properties evaluation. The results will be part of the presentation at this week’s conference. Fabian Wehrle, Global Innovation Exterior Engineer at Motherson, says: “This collaboration with PureCycle is an import...

Sulzer has been selected by WPU, part of Vitol, a global energy and commodities company, to provide its PyroCon™ technology and engineering services for its new chemical #recyclingfacility in the Netherlands. The new WPU site will process up to 80,000 tonnes of mixed #plasticwaste per year, converting it into reusable raw material. #WPU’s new facility located next to Vitol’s VPR refinery in the Port of Rotterdam will process large volumes of plastic waste. WPU’s proprietary technology converts the waste plastic into gas, through a #pyrolysis process. Sulzer’s PyroCon™ technology then cools and condenses these vapors into a liquid feedstock that can be used to produce new plastic materials.  Sulzer will also provide engineering services to support project execution, delivering a complete skid‑mounted modular solution. Basic engineering for the project was completed in Q1 2026, with first skid deliveries scheduled for Q1 2027 in line with the project timeline.  Turning compl...

Avantium Spins Out Volta Technology into New Company Carbeau, Securing Significant Growth Funding

Image
Avantium N.V., a pioneer in renewable and circular polymer materials, today announces the spin‑out of its electrochemical platform, previously known as Volta Technology, into a new, independent company named Carbeau, with retrospective effect from 1 April 2026. Carbeau is backed by a strong investor consortium comprising GKT, Invest‑NL, Al Baleed Petrochemical and NOM, alongside Avantium. Volta Technology is an electrochemical platform that converts CO₂ into high-performing chemicals using electricity, enabling the use of CO₂ as a raw material rather than a waste stream. Carbeau has secured a total of €35.2 million in funding. This includes €23.7 million in cash contributions from external investors and an 11.5 million in-kind contribution (non-cash) from Avantium. Following the transaction, Avantium retains a 32.7% shareholding in Carbeau. The external investor group brings together complementary industrial, financial and regional expertise. Strategic partners comprise GKT GmbH, based...
