This Polymer Bulletin is a current awareness service from the Polymer Library, the worlds largest database dedicated to polymer literature. Each time the abstracts database is updated with new records (approx. every two weeks) you will be sent a bulletin alerting you to any items that relate to recycling polyethylene.

Recycling of plastic materials is an important topic, driven by commercial and environmental influences. Pressures on landfill capacity and other concerns such as legislation or regulations have caused the plastics industry to pay much greater attention to the recycling of heterogeneous plastic waste. Separation and cleaning techniques have been developed along with the means of reusing recycled material. The latter sometimes give variable compositions and poorer properties, but additives can be used to improve the properties of recycled polymers. Blending of recycled polymers may also help to improve the properties of the materials.
