Abstract[English]
A blend comprises a polyester, for example polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and a second component, wherein the second component may be a monomer which is arranged to become polymerised into said polyester, suitably when said blend is melt processed at an elevated temperature, for example in a polyester recycling process. The blend may be used in production of an article, for example a packaging article (eg bottles, jars, trays, cups or films) and/or a film/sheet having increased opacity (and/or reduced light transmission), wherein the opacity can be reduced (and/or transmission increased) subsequent to use of the article to facilitate recycling of the article with a main PET recycle stream.[French]
L'invention concerne un mélange qui comprend un polyester, par exemple du polyéthylène téréphtalate (PET) et un second constituant, le second constituant pouvant être un monomère qui est agencé pour devenir polymérisé en ledit polyester, de manière appropriée lorsque ledit mélange est traité à l'état fondu à une température élevée, par exemple dans un procédé de recyclage de polyester. Le mélange peut être utilisé dans la production d'un article, par exemple un article d'emballage (par ex. des flacons, des bocaux, des plateaux, des coupelles ou des films) et/ou d'un film/d'une feuille ayant une opacité accrue (et/ou une transmission de lumière réduite), l'opacité pouvant être réduite (et/ou la transmission accrue) à la suite de l'utilisation de l'article pour faciliter le recyclage de l'article avec un flux de recyclage de PET principal.
