Comprehensive resource efficiency means far more than the preservation of natural resources. It also includes the productivity factors of material, machine and labor. The plastics industry has made a great contribution to resource efficiency, but often finds itself on the defensive. Yet a knowledge of the various relationships involved provides enough material to go on the offensive with arguments illustrating the benefits of plastics technology.

Resource Efficiency with  Plastics Technology 

Rotation, shear, heat and pressure – this much is clear: These are the factors required to compound plastics on twin screw extruders. From a scientific point of view, however, the question remained until recently as to which mechanisms exist during incipient fusion along with the energy input into the melt resulting. Scientists from the plastics division at Fraunhofer Institute for Structural Durability and System Reliability LBF in Darmstadt, Germany, have been successful in gaining an insight into these processes by using new types of measuring techniques.
