Re:Reycling Plastic from the Inside Out by cr0sh on Tuesday May 07, 2019 @01:04PM (#19851311)
I'm kinda curious if this "new" plastic is going to be flexible enough in the number of applications to replace most common plastics in common applications, or if it's going to have the same issues (ie, needing fillers or other things to make it work for certain applications).

What is it's heat resistance? How well does it work in extreme cold? How flexible is it? Impact resistance? Can it be made clear?

Maybe any fillers, etc can also easily separate out?

If it can replace most uses of PP/PE/ABS/PVC - it would be huge on the consumer market (also, providing it doesn't have a similar BPA-like issue).
