Plastic waste recycling resource is imminent

  With the amount of plastic products expanding and the scope of plastic waste also increasing, plastic trash has become a "junk Besieged City" force to be reckoned with in the forces of darkness. As the world's largest producer of plastics, recycling of plastic waste is hard and we have a long way to go.

  With the increasing urban population, the process of industrialization accelerating and consumer awareness growing, global plastics waste management market demand is increasing. According to the world's second largest market research firm MarketsandMarkets research report shows that in 2020, the global plastic waste management market is expected to increase annual revenue 26,573,300,000 US dollars (about 169 billion yuan).

  China has a long history in the use of plastics. In the whole process for China to board the peak of economy, China exported a large quantity of plastic products and become the world's largest plastics producers in 2013. Recently, the domestic consumption of plastic is still growing.　Because of a lot of production and improper internal management, plastic waste of china is also the world's leading, especially plastic debris into the ocean, about 28% are generated in China. Since 2025 is expected to increase 300 million urban residents, with the rapid rise in total consumption, China needs to find a more efficient plastic waste polystyrene recycling methods.

  Through the integrated treatment of garbage recycling, it can reduce pollution and conserve resources, as 1 ton of recycling plastic bottles get 0.7 tons secondary materials. Plastics recycling can provide energy and can be used as the extraction of oil and fuel to be regenerated from the system through the new high-quality plastic material products, so plastics recycling has widespread applications. 

Advantages and disadvantages of polyethylene plastic foam board insulation Interior

  Polyethylene plastic foam board is one of the three common interior wall insulation material. Also known as foam board, EPS board, white object from the polystyrene beads containing a volatile liquid foaming agent upon heating advance and heated in the mold and molding. It has fine features of its closed cell structure, mainly used for building walls, roof insulation, insulation and other composite panels. EPS is divided into expansion board (benzene board) and Continuous Extrusion plate XPS (extruded plate). Polystyrene recycling is a strong trend around the world today.

  Polyethylene plastic foam board Advantages:

1, polyethylene plastic foam board density coefficient, good impact resistance, have the ability to change and respond by the shape of the external impact force buffering;

2, with independent bubble structure, a small area of ​​damage will not affect the entire surface of the wall;

3, low water absorption, good anti-permeability, can effectively avoid the damp moldy walls or fall off the wall;

4, the temperature is not affected. At high temperature, polystyrene foam board will not melt and flow due to high temperature, it will not break if the temperature is too low;

5, polystyrene foam is recyclable material that can be recycled, the degree of recycling plastics is the highest;

6, in the production process does not use freon;

7, full life cycle energy consumption of plastics is the lowest.

  Polyethylene plastic foam board disadvantages:

1, the construction needs linked network, the construction process cumbersome, long duration;

2, flammable, have toxic gases after combustion. Common polystyrene foam insulation board is easy to burn, toxic smoke produced by combustion, even after adding a flame retardant, it can only reach B combustibility grade;

3, the strength of the material is poor, prone to cracking, insulation shedding phenomenon is relatively common;

4, polystyrene foam insulation board need to enhance the process when the tiles because of its limited strength, load-bearing ability;

5, unstable quality polyethylene plastic foam board, because the material before the factory needs a period of time, after a period of maturity can only be used, if uncured thorough, quality will not be guaranteed, leading to foam board shrinkage cracking.

Mexican scientists study new foam recycling method

Mexico City, August 16 (reporter Yeshu Hong) Mexico's National Institute of Chemistry, University Autonomy is working on a new method of "white pollution" solution, an aqueous solvent can be used to recover waste Styrofoam to the original status.

The research project leader Jesús Gracia • • Rick van der said the collected polystyrene foam was dissolved in one kind of business solvent, then mixed solution was dropped into the water, dissolved in the polymerization of polystyrene foam and it will once again become a dolphin clean and easy separation of the original ball, the ball can be re-made into foam products.

Foam is widely used in packaging, cushioning material because of its good thermoplastic properties and chemical stability. However, it does harm to the environment due to its non-degradation, how to recycle has become a hot topic of research scientists from various countries .

Every year, Intco Greenmax Recycling will arrange sales team to join in the world exhibition, to do product promotion, brand promotion by facing close to the global customer. The product manuals and other promotional materials about Intco Greenmax EPS recycling compacting will be delivered to the hands of customers.

Eps polystyrene foam board become legal export commodity inspection

     In recent years, the Russian construction market rapid warming,it needs a lot of building materials. Since the Russian high latitude, cold climate, long winter,there is a large need for thermal insulation, excellent waterproof performance construction materials which is made ​​of polystyrene. "foam board" made in China is popular in the Russian construction industry. According to Heilongjiang Heihe Exit Inspection and Quarantine Bureau staff, in early 2014, China has adjusted the entry and exit inspection and quarantine eps polystyrene foam board new law is satisfied for the export of goods seized.

 Heihe port is the nearest port to the Russia, it has the capacity to contain 1.5 million tons import and export goods,3 million immigration officers.It has been built and opened in Heilongjiang pontoon solid ice and freight passenger channels, enabling the four seasons of Heihe port clearance.

　　As of the end of October, Heihe Port as the busiest ports has tested a total polystyrene 987.5 tons, worth US $ 1,787,800.

　　As China adds polystyrene to the export of goods with Russian infrastructure situation’s impact,polystyrene plates (commonly known as “foam board”) will become increasingly popular Russian building materials market.

       Management of marine pollution, can not delay. Waste plastics recycling especially Styrofoam recycling industry plays a leading role in this arduous task.Our Greenmax Recycling devoted itself into global waste plastic recycling. 

Demand incompetent, Asian PS price decrease

  Last week, the cost of styrene fell to the lowest in April. Asian PS (polystyrene recycling) market trends decline. Market analysts pointed out that sluggish market demand and desolate environment in addition to the upstream raw material costs is another important reason for causing the decline of Asian PS prices. At present, the GPPS from Far East exporting to China(general purpose polystyrene) and HIPS (high impact polystyrene) had fell $ 10-15 per ton compared with the previous price. Upstream, FOB Korea and CFR China Styrene spot price both fell down about $ 20 / ton.

  A local trader complained that trading atmosphere in the local region has been going on for many months remain at low ebb. "Due to the current weak market demand, we have no confidence in PS is the future trend. Recent styrene prices continued lower, which dragged down the market price largely. Compared with GPPS, HIPS market is even worse. In the next few days, HIPS will may face a new round of price-cutting frenzy.

  Insiders said that the current Southeast Asian PS market is also facing the same dilemma. Last week, the country's import GPPS fell $ 35-50 per ton compared with the previous offer, while HIPS decline $ 5-30 / ton.
