With the growing use of recycled polymers comes a growing need to control odors in these plastics. Odor in recyclate comes from many sources, including odors from the polymer, odors from degradation products of polymer additives, and odors specific to where the recycled polymer had been used, such as in milk cartons or oil containers. An obvious problem is that consumers don't like unpleasant odors in products they buy. In addition, recyclers often want to reduce odor to improve the operators' environment during compounding and pelletizing of recycled resins, or in downstream processing such as bottle production or filling. The plastics industry currently uses various methods and additive technologies to solve the odor problem. In some applications, pleasant fragrances such as citrus or vanilla are added to mask odor. Some additives, including microporous materials like activated carbon and aluminosilicates, adsorb or trap odor compounds and VOCs. Neutralizing additives bond with the odor compound to reduce their volatility. An alternative solution is to remove odor using stripping agents (like water, nitrogen, or carbon dioxide), which remove volatiles by degassing in the extruder.
OD10MB4200 acts like a stripping agent, but is simple to feed as a granular additive. The additive reduces solubility of volatile compounds so that they are removed from the extruder during degassing.
