When making the plastic films used for keeping cookies, pasta and many other products fresh and clean, the process generates a lot of similar scrap and only a fraction can be reused for production. Team of experts from Clariant’s Business Unit Additives created AddWorks® PKG 906 Circle – a special polymer stabilizer able to substantially boost the rate of scrap reused in polyolefin films. This polymer stabilizer allows reintroducing reground scrap at a rate of 20% and higher into virgin PP and PE resins without notable loss in quality or process efficiency.
