When recycling multiple types of plastics together, one of the biggest challenges is getting them to blend properly. Different polymers have unique molecular architectures and interfacial tensions, which makes them naturally resistant to mixing. This incompatibility leads to fragile interphase regions, resulting in brittle, low-quality recycled products. That’s where compatibilizers come in. These specialized additives act like interfacial mediators, improving the compatibility of chemically divergent chains. By refining phase morphology and boosting interfacial cohesion, compatibilizers help create a consistent, well-integrated blend. This means the recycled material can have enhanced durability with improved elongation at break and resistance to fracture. Compatibilizers are especially valuable in recycling streams that contain PP, PET. They can be either block copolymers, graft copolymers, اکسیر پلیمر or reactive agents that chemically link the different polymer chains. The use of compatibilizers doesn’t just improve the quality of recycled plastics—it also makes it economically feasible to recycle mixed plastic waste that would otherwise be sent to landfill. As recycling technologies evolve, compatibilizers are becoming an essential tool in turning complex plastic waste into valuable new materials, helping close the loop in a circular economy.
