Do you face problems in finding the right recyclate or rPM (recycled plastic material) for your virgin material or are you looking to increase the publicity of your recyclate? The matrix tool can help you in this regard. Some of the use cases of the Matrix Tool are as follows:
Do you face problems in finding the right recyclate or rPM (recycled plastic material) for your virgin material or are you looking to increase the publicity of your recyclate? Then the Matrix Tool is the perfect candidate for you. Over the years the tool has been used by several companies (both producer and supplier) Some of the use cases of the Matrix Tool are as follows: face problems in finding the right recyclate or rPM (recycled plastic material) for your virgin material or are you looking to increase the publicity of your recyclate? Then the Matrix Tool is the perfect candidate for you. Some of the use cases of the tool are as follows:

-One producer wanted to use recyclate HDPE instead of virgin HDPE in their product. In the beginning, the virgin material properties were determined through tests. Those properties were put into the matrix tool. After that, the tool provided a ranking of the potential PE or PE/PP recyclates using the database. From the ranking, 3 recyclates were chosen and the suppliers were contacted. The recyclates were ordered and tested for verification of their properties. After the tests, one out of the three recyclates was recommended for their product.

-One supplier sells polyolefins, ABS and PS recyclates. They can see the demand on the "Request Tab" of the matrix tool. In addition, 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..

__Process technology:__ This indicates the technology used in converting the raw materials into semi-finished or finished products such as buckets, automobile parts, crates, tanks, pipes, bottles etc. Some typical process technologies are:

__Melt Flow Index:__ It gives an indication of the fluidity of the molten polymer. This propety is important 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 fracturing 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.

__Strength at Yield:__ It is the applied stress at yield strain. This value is the maximum stress a material can handle before it plastically deforms. For blown films, it is measured in machine direction and transverse direction.
