Circularity and Sustainability

R&D in circular polymeric materials focuses on developing advanced composites and bio-based alternatives to traditional plastics.

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.
