-One supplier sells polyolefins, ABS and PS recyclates. They are able to see the demand on the "Request Tab" of the matrix tool. In additon, they can see the overview of the producer requests using the filters. This in turn also helps them to optimize their recyclates according to the demand. They expect to increase the sale of their materials to several hundred tons per year using the tool.

European Commission has the goal of reaching a circular economy and plastics have a crucial role in reaching this goal. Plastics are used in many sectors such as packaging, building and construction, textiles, consumer products, transportation, electrical and electronics, and so on. Thus it is important to close the plastic loop to reach a sustainable and resource-efficient economy. One of the ways of achieving the goal is to use recyclate (recycled plastic) as an alternative to the virgin material for new plastic products. Although there is a high demand for recyclate material in the market, a very small amount of product is made from recyclate. This indicates the presence of some challenges in the uptake of the recyclate. Therefore, the main goal of the Interreg Di-Plast Project was to increase the uptake of recyclate among the companies. The Matrix Tool was developed for this purpose. Deatils about the Di-Plast Project can be found at [https://www.nweurope.eu/projects/project-search/di-plast-digital-circular-economy-for-the-plastics-industry/]

__Melt Flow Index:__ This property gives an indication of the fluidity of the molten polymer. It is an important value for the prediction of processing behaviour and material selection. The MFI could be seen as a measured viscosity at a single temperature and shear rate. It is often measured at a specified temperature and weight. However, due to the fact that the viscosity of polymers is shear-dependent, the MFI could also be measured at multiple weights (shear rates).

__Impact Strength:__ It denotes the energy needed for the fracture of a material. The greater the value, the more resistant the material is to breaking upon impact. It can be measured via Charpy or Izod methods. Samples could be measured notched or unnotched. Notched values are lower than unnotched values due to the limitation of energy dissipation throughout the sample. Furthermore, the impact strength can be measured at different temperatures to predict impact behavior in different environments.

__E-Modulus:__ It denotes the stiffness of a material in the tensile direction. For blown films this value is measured in the machine direction and transverse direction.

__Strain at Yield:__ It denotes the strain (percentage of elongation) of the material at its maximum elastic point. Deformation lower than this value is elastic, meaning the material can return to its original shape. Deformation greater than this value is plastic, meaning the material is permanently deformed. For blown films this value is measured in the machine direction and transverse direction.
