How to Reduce Breakage in Recycled Plastic?

Impact Modification Solutions for Recycled Plastics

Quick Answer: Adding Siya Polymer's impact modification additives to recycled PP and PE granules improves the performance of low-quality recycled material, significantly reducing cracking and breakage in products made from it.

Why This Happens

Recycled granules always have weaker mechanical properties than virgin material — repeated melt processing degrades the polymer chains, which is why products made from recycled PP or PE crack or break much faster in the field. This problem is especially critical for manufacturers who are increasing recycled content for sustainability targets but cannot afford to compromise on quality complaints, buyer audits or export specifications. Contamination, mixed-grade streams and inconsistent MFI make the problem worse batch to batch. Siya Polymer & Speciality Chemicals works closely with recyclers and compounders to build back the lost toughness in these streams.
