TDPA™ plastics are recyclable in conventional recycling streams, without needing segregation from conventional plastics. Independent scientific analysis commissioned by the Centre de recherche industrielle du Québec (CRIQ, a government agency of the Province of Quebec, Canada) concluded that TDPA™ plastics are compatible with conventional plastic recycling streams, at mixture levels of up to 50%. The physical properties and performance of both relatively thick moulded samples and blown films produced from recycling a mixture of TDPA™ and conventional plastics were comparable to those produced from recycling only conventional plastics.
