Aluula Composites manufactures ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), a plastic which combines toughness, low friction coefficient, high impact strength, and low density. It delivers eight times the strength-to-weight ratio of steel, while being lighter than nylon or polyester, making it a popular choice, for example, for articulating surfaces of joint replacements, such as hip, knee or ankle.<\/p>\n<p>Traditionally, such composite materials are made by gluing together different layers and outer films to create fabrics for use in a wide range of product applications. Using a patented fusion process, the Canadian innovator fuses fibres and technical films together without glue. It says the process not only creates extremely light, strong, and durable fabrics but materials that are \u2018recycle ready\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>An initial project with the Composites Research Network at UBC Vancouver established the ability to compress off-cuts and end-of-life products into uniform, lightweight and durable panels.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/recyclinginternational.com\/plastics\/recycling-progress-for-high-end-composites\/54484\/\">Recycling International<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/1-383\/\">Recycling progress for high-end composites<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[11098,575,764,11099],"class_list":["post-116166","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-composite","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-recycling","tag-surgery"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/116166","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=116166"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/116166\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=116166"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=116166"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=116166"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
