“…These remarks align with the conclusions drawn from earlier work that suggest the presence of a new topological structure (in the present case, a crosslinking network). 3,6,14,22,23,29 During the industrial processing procedure, the shear rates are usually in the 100 and 1000 s À1 range, which, according to the Cox-Merz law, covers the 100-1000 rad/s range, meaning that under regular processing conditions, the addition of the recycled material to the blend does not lead to unusual or unmanageable viscosity and extrusion pressure or torque. 3,22,29 Figures 7 and 8 display the storage modulus, G 0 , and loss modulus, G 00 curves for the blends of virgin and recycled LDPE and LLDPE.…”
