Abstract |
Plastic is an indispensable material to our everyday life. However, some negative properties, for example, the durability under mild conditions, pose threat to the natural environment. The circular economy is an effort to mimic the loop-closing attribute of nature in anthropogenic systems. To bring plastics in such circularity in term of circular economy, a number of issues have to be handled from the quality of the recycled material to the acceptance of its use in new products. It is sometimes only a subtle step what we can do easily. |
