  • Why Can't All Plastics Be Recycled?
    Why can’t all plastics be recycled? Plastic has become prevalent because it is inexpensive and it can be engineered with a wide range of properties. Plastics are strong but lightweight, somewhat resistant to being degraded by chemicals, sunlight, and bacteria, and are thermally and electrically insulating. What does the symbol mean? A chasing arrows symbol, or resin code, does not mean that a plastic container is recyclable. Most plastic containers are marked with the chasing arrows symbol ‐ number one through seven in the center. The number inside the arrows signifies the main chemical compound used to make that plastic container. Unfortunately, the symbol does not mean that plastic container can be recycled. There are seven resin codes used inside the chasing arrow symbols: 1. PETE Polyethylene Terephthalate is in pop and water bottles. Please recycle. 2. HDPE High Density Polyethylene is opaque and usually in bottles that store laundry detergent and milk. These are usually recyclable. 3. V Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) is found in plastic pipes, shrink wrap. 4. LDPE Low Density Polyethylene is in produce bags, plastic wrap, and plastic bags. 5. PP Polypropylene is used for yogurt tubs, ketchup bottles. 6. PS Polystyrene is found in Styrofoam, used for egg crates. 7. Other This category covers a vast mixture of resins and includes food containers (clam shells), polycarbonate used in sport bottles, and bio‐based plastic used in compostable food containers. Why don’t we recycle all these plastics? Most cities collect #1 and #2 types of plastic, or the plastic bottles made from PETE/PET and HDPE resin.

  • A COMPARISON of GELATIN and TRADITIONAL PLASTICS Grant Proposal
    A COMPARISON OF GELATIN AND TRADITIONAL PLASTICS Grant Proposal Team H: Allison Brookhart, Bao Le, Amelia Navarre, Kelly Simpson, Ame Tsamasse PROJECT SUMMARY To what degree would gelatin plastics be a viable option compared to conventional plastics in the longevity of the plastic function, biodegradability, cleanliness, and in economic feasibility? If gelatin plastics last longer, are more biodegradable, are healthier for humans, and are inexpensive, then they would be a feasible alternative to conventional plastics. Plastic waste and microplastics are a major problem that could have detrimental effects on marine ecosystems, terrestrial animal species, human health, and more. BACKGROUND In Case Study 1, we found there was not a lot of research on gelatin plastics with a hydrophobic coating. We wanted to create gelatin plastics that can do well in moist environments, so as to be suited for the foodservice industry. In the first case study, we created three different coatings for the plastics we made. The coating with beeswax and lignin mixed acetone fared the best out of the three: it was the most hydrophobic and adhered to the plastic the longest. In this case study, we want to continue this research. The questions we are now posting are the unknowns that arose from the previous experiment. This includes asking if there is a way to make a better film that holds for a longer time period and testing the efficiency of the biodegradability of the plastics. Gelatin plastic has long been explored as a safer and more biodegradable product for food packaging. It is a more environmentally-friendly alternative to the plastic used today and could serve as a possible solution to the global plastic epidemic (Hanani et al., 2014).

  • 3% Sorbitol Urologic Irrigating Solutionin UROMATIC Plastic
    SORBITOL- sorbitol irrigant Baxter Healthcare Corporation ---------- 3% Sorbitol Urologic Irrigating Solution in UROMATIC Plastic Container DESCRIPTION 3% Sorbitol Urologic Irrigating Solution is a sterile, nonpyrogenic, nonhemolytic, electrically nonconductive solution in a single dose UROMATIC Plastic Container for use as a urologic irrigating solution. Each liter contains 30 g Sorbitol in Water for Injection. pH 5.0 (4.5 to 6.5). Osmolarity 165 mOsmol/L (calc.). No antimicrobial agent has been added. Sorbitol is a reduced form of dextrose and is designated chemically as D-Glucitol, The UROMATIC plastic container is fabricated from a specially formulated polyvinyl chloride (PL 146 plastic). The amount of water that can permeate from inside the container into the overwrap is insufficient to affect the solution significantly. Solutions in contact with the plastic container can leach out certain of its chemical components in very small amounts within the expiration period, e.g., di-2- ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP), up to 5 parts per million; however, the safety of the plastic has been confirmed in tests in animals according to USP biological tests for plastic containers as well as by tissue culture toxicity studies. CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY 3% Sorbitol Urologic Irrigating Solution is useful as an irrigating fluid for the urinary bladder because the sorbitol solution is nonhemolytic, electrically nonconductive, and provides a high degree of visibility for urologic procedures requiring endoscopy. During transurethral surgical procedures, the solution acts as a lavage for removing blood and tissue fragments. It is also useful as an irrigating fluid to maintain the patency of an indwelling catheter in the immediate postoperative period.

There is a disconnect between the manufacturers and the solid waste industry, which causes misinformation and confusion among the general public. Plastics #1 & 2 are readily recyclable and are usually recycled in the USA. These plastics are mostly converted into new plastic bottles or containers, while some are converted into textiles or insulation. Plastic #1 (PET) from the RethinkWaste service area stays in domestic markets; it is currently sent to Custom Polymers in Alabama and DAK in Indiana. Plastic #2 (HDPE) from the RethinkWaste service area is recycled through both domestic and international Figure 1: Plastic #1 (PET) Bottle Figure 2: Plastic #2 (HDPE) Container markets. When it is exported, it is sent to South Korea and Taiwan. When it stays domestic, it is sent to Talco Plastics and Epic Plastics in California. Plastics #3 - 7 are all versions of plastic which are difficult to recycle, and currently have no market. Prior to March of 2018, the United States sent large amounts of plastics and paper to China1 to be recycled. When China implemented the National Sword Policy, the accepted contamination rates changed from 5% to 0.5%. No facility in the United States or other industrialized countries could meet this new standard. In response, the flow of recyclable materials was diverted to secondary markets in different East and South East Asian countries.
