POST CONSUMER RECYCLED RESIN COMPOSITION AND MANUFACTURE OF TUBES THEREFROM

摘要

The present disclosure relates to a post consumer recycled polymer composition comprising: 80% to 95% (w/w) of a post consumer recycled resin; and 5% to 20% (w/w) of at least one additive. The present disclosure further relates to a laminate comprising: an outer layer of a post consumer recycled polymer composition; a middle layer of post consumer recycled polymer composition; and an inner layer of virgin resins. The present disclosure also relates to a process for manufacturing tubes comprising: extrusion of post consumer recycled polymer composition comprising 80% to 95% (w/w) of an post consumer recycled resin; and 5% to 20% (w/w) of at least one additive, through a circular slit to form a long cylindrical hollow pipe; slicing the long cylindrical hollow pipe to form tube sleeves; forming tube shoulder and neck; and attaching the tube shoulder and the neck to the tube sleeves to obtain a tube.
