“…Common methods to disperse nanomaterials into a virgin polymer matrix are melt blending, solution mixing, shear mixing, three-roll milling, ball milling, and in situ polymerization [ 9 , 10 ]. Common dispersion methods in the plastic waste nanocomposites observed in the current work have been melt blending with a twin-screw extruder [ 8 , 13 , 17 , 19 , 24 – 26 , 29 , 39 , 41 , 42 ], two-roll milling [ 20 – 22 , 43 ], solvent blending [ 10 , 23 , 31 , 33 , 38 ], and electrospinning [ 27 , 32 , 35 – 37 , 45 , 46 ], as well as other methods such as in situ polymerization [ 30 ]. Different processing methods are used as a secondary processing step to shape plastic waste nanocomposites into solid test specimens, foams, or nanocomposite fibers.…”
