Solvay的科学家开发了一个创新的过程，可以彻底改变PVDC食品包装的未来回收
布鲁塞尔，2021年9月28日 - 索尔维（Solvay）是一家提供高性能材料的科学公司，用于安全可靠的食品包装，已进行了概念证明，表明聚乙烯二氯化物（PVDC）有可能回收。PVDC用于全球食品，饮料和医疗多层屏障包装。
概念证明涉及从食品包装的后工业废物来源回收IXAN®PVDC生物膜的过程，而不会损害高屏障聚合物的性能。它标志着朝着更可持续和循环包装应用程序迈出的重要一步，有可能发起其他举措，例如回收包含PVDC的消费后包装。
“The proof of concept developed by our research team is a solution for PVDC packaging circularity. It shows there is a possibility to reintegrate the recycled polymer into future applications, meaning it can be re-used and re-blended with virgin materials – without losing or degrading its high barrier properties,” said Claire Guerrero, Global Marketing Manager for Packaging Segment and Sustainability at Solvay.
“我们团队开发的回收技术使我们能够达到正确的质量，从而使回收的PVDC满足间接食品接触的严格要求，从而创建封闭环路，”高级项目投资组合领导者R＆I补充说。
Maintaining the high quality of the polymer was essential to Solvay in their quest to find a sustainable solution. Solvay specialty polymer’s function of providing a strong barrier against water, oxygen and aromas is why it is used in essential applications to preseerve food and reduce waste. A reduction of these properties would defeat its purpose.
Now that this initial breakthrough has been achieved, Solvay is urging fellow companies operating within the plastics industry to work together to turn the recycling of PVDC into reality.There is a particular need to introduce the infrastructure required to collect and segregate packaging containing PVDC.
“不用说，设置全球PVDC回收流是一项艰巨的任务，因此我们邀请我们的同伴与我们一起工作，以介绍一种在全球范围内回收PVDC的方法。我们都可以在塑料中发挥作用包装回收挑战赛，Solvay致力于发挥其作用，”克莱尔·格雷罗（Claire Guerrero）补充说。
The results of this proof of concept are opening new possibilities to test the recyclability concept on other packaging applications using PVDC.
