Home // Creating Circular Composites: Challenges and Opportunities for Polymer Materials Engineers In pyrolysis, the polymer matrix is oxidized at temperatures >500°C, recovering energy plus the fibers. For instance, Avient engineers successfully used 100% PCR PET in composite unidirectional tapes and laminates, and PCR nylon 6 from reclaimed fishing nets in a LFT composite.

These voids eventually grow larger with aligned polymer fibrils extending between them (Figure 1), which manifests as a series of fine cracks or “crazes” in a planar array normal to the stress.4,5 The crazes continue to propagate and eventually rupture, leading to cracking and further stress concentration that inevitably causes brittle failure. The PK blends included unfilled, high impact (HI), and FR grades. Polymer Engineering & Science 2012, 53 (3), 453–467. 5.
