“…In the research published so far, it is necessary to mention the references that have shown the high efficiency of combining waste polyethylene with a copolymer and an elastomer in manufacturing a material that can be effectively used in industry [23,24]. Marossy [25] and Záraga [26] analysed the effect of chlorinated polyethylene in PVC/PE blends and found that polyethylene improves its rigidity if the concentration of chlorinated polyethylene is not too high. Kollar and co-authors [27] demonstrated that a blend of polyvinyl chloride with polyethylene can be obtained by melt blending using high-and low-density polyethylene, without the use of a stabilizer.…”

In this article, the possibility of obtaining a solid plate from waste cable sheaths, by mechanical recycling, i.e., grinding, plasticising and pressing, is discussed—waste cable sheaths being pure PVC with a slight admixture of silicone. Press moulding was carried out under the following conditions: temperature 135 °C, heating duration 1 h and applied pressure 10 MPa. The yield point of the obtained solid plate obtained was 15.0 + −0.6 MPa, flexural strength 0.94 MPa, yield point 0.47 MPa and Charpy’s impact strength 5.1 kJ/m2. The resulting solid plate does not differ significantly from the input material, in terms of mechanical strength, so, from the point of view of strength, that is, from a technical point of view, such promising processing of waste cables can be carried out successfully in industrial practice.

“…Also Marossy [29] proved that the low polyethylene content in the PVC mixture improves the stiffness. According to Arnold [30], impurities in the form of PE accelerate the process of PVC degradation due to the presence of free radicals formed during thermooxidative degradation of PE.…”

This paper presents the contemporary problems of polymer waste recycling, mainly recycling cables from end-of-life vehicles. The authors developed a new material based on mixed polymer waste (ASR) modified with a ductile polymer, mainly recycled low-density polyethylene (rLDPE), to produce moisture-resistant boards with beneficial mechanical properties. The ASR-based compositions without and with homogenization process—including physical, chemical, and shear-assisted compatibilization—were successfully applied and verified by evaluating final recycled product properties. The results showed that recycled polyethylene (rLDPE) was effective as a modifier increasing tensile modulus and flexural strength compare to an ASR mixture. It was found that the adding 5 wt % of polyethylene-grafted maleic anhydride (PE-g-MAH) as a compatibilizer to the ASR mixture significantly increases the homogenization of the components in the ASR matrix. The optimal solution for management cable waste is the manufacture of ASR composites with homogenization using an internal mixer the adding 20 wt % of rLDPE and 5 wt % of PE-g-MAH to the mixed plastics cable waste. The results obtained demonstrate that the hot-pressing with the pre-blending with rLDPE and compatibilizer of the ASR based waste provides a high gain in mechanical and usage properties, enabling the circular economy of plastics from automotive cables.

“…They are frequently used in wire, hose, tubing, moulding, extrusion, cable jacketing, and other industrial and automotive applications. 4 In several polymer composites, CPE is effective as a compatibilizer and adhesion promoter. 5 The demands of modern-day applications cannot be met solely by a single polymer.…”

This work insight into the structural, morphological, thermal, conductivity, dielectric and mechanical properties of chlorinated polyethylene/copper alumina (CPE/Cu-Al2O3) nanocomposites. The Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR) of the nanocomposites ensured the presence of Cu-Al2O3 in the polymer chains of chlorinated polyethylene. The X-ray diffractograms (XRD) clearly showed the amorphous nature of the pure polymer and the crystallinity imparted by the addition of the nanosized Cu-Al2O3 into the polymer. The surface morphology of CPE and CPE with different filler loadings was examined using a field-emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM), and the images showed the presence of hemispherical particles of nanometric size. The glass transition temperature (Tg) of the nanocomposite system was determined by differential scanning calorimetric analysis, and the Tg values showed an increase with the loading of nanoparticles. Investigation of electrical conductivity and impedance properties at room temperature with varying applied frequencies demonstrated an enhancement in electrical properties with the addition of nanoparticles. Dielectric constant and dielectric loss exhibit an increasing nature with frequency. The mechanical properties of the polymer nanocomposites, such as tensile strength, modulus, hardness, and impact resistance, were improved while their elongation at break was decreased by the addition of Cu-Al2O3. Several theoretical models were correlated with the experimental tensile strength to study the reinforcing mechanism of Cu-Al2O3 reinforced CPE.
