High-quality recyclates for sustainable products
Micro-compounders are essential for developing recycled and sustainable polymeric materials, enabling efficient formulation, rapid screening, and precise processing with minimal material use. They help optimize polymer properties, enhance recyclate quality, and reduce costs while ensuring reproducibility and scalability. Xplore’s micro-compounders support mechanical recycling R&D, transforming plastic waste into high-quality recyclates with additives or fillers. They enable chemical modifications, real-time viscosity monitoring, and precise sample shaping using post-die tools. With volumetric dosing for stable throughput, Xplore accelerates plastic-to-plastic loops, driving circular economy solutions and helping researchers develop eco-friendly polymers quickly and effectively.

Support
Xplore provides exceptional support for the circularity & sustainability market, offering comprehensive resources like whitepapers, technical documents, FAQs, and expert guidance to optimize machine performance and streamline R&D processes.
Technical notes Specification sheets FAQ ContactThe small capacity of Xplore’s equipment helped us optimize our formulations with just a few grams of PHA, allowing us to do a wider variety of trials with less time, less effort and fewer materials.
