Compounding

Researchers and engineers at PEP are combining their skills and expertise to understand your thermoplastic formulation and recycling issues.

PEP has industrial testing facilities in compounding, injection and characterization to meet the specification requirements of its clients.

PEP'services:

• Advice and expertise in thermoplastic formulation
• Compounding
• Injecting standardized plates and specimens
• Compound characterizations (mechanical, physico-chemical, thermal, rheological and ageing).

Using compounding to incorporate different kinds of fillers, additives and reinforcements (mineral, plant, organic, etc.) into polymer matrices gives materials specific bespoke properties (colour, elasticity, rigidity, impact strength, wear resistance, chemical resistance, conductivity, fire-proofing, etc.).

Compounding is also used to regenerate or recycle plastics.

PEP is committed to sustainable development by its work on valorizing thermoplastics and offers support for your recycling issues.
