Polymer Sand Technology Process

Process

1. Plastic Waste Collection

• Description: Gather discarded plastic materials such as LDPE, HDPE, PP, or mixed plastics.

2. Shredding and Size Reduction

• Description: The collected plastic is shredded into small flakes or granules to make it easier to melt.

• Goal: Achieve uniform size for efficient melting and mixing.

3. Sand Preparation

• Description: Clean and dry sand (silica or other types) is prepared for mixing.

• Goal: Remove moisture and ensure the sand particles are uniform in size for optimal mixing.

4. Mixing Plastic and Sand

• Description: The molten plastic is mixed with sand in a high-torque mixer to form a homogeneous composite.

• Goal: Achieve a uniform, well-blended mixture of plastic and sand.

5. Melting Mix Material through Extruders

6. Molding the Composite

• Description: The polymer-sand mixture is poured into molds  to shape the final product (tiles, pavers, etc.).

• Goal: Create the desired shape and size of the end product.

8. Cooling and Solidifying

• Description: The molded products are cooled, either through air cooling or in a water bath, to solidify the composite.

• Goal: Set the final shape and enhance the strength of the product.

9. Demolding and Finishing

• Description: Once the products are cooled, they are removed from the molds.

• Goal: Ensure the products are smooth, ready for any additional processing (like surface finishing or coloring).

10. Quality Control

• Description: The finished products undergo testing for durability, strength, and quality.

• Goal: Ensure the products meet the required standards before being released to the market.

11. Packaging and Distribution

• Description: The final products are packed and prepared for shipment.

• Goal: Deliver durable, eco-friendly products to customers, contributing to a cleaner environment.

This process ensures minimal waste, utilizing primarily recycled materials while producing durable, sustainable products.
