    The recycled material refers to the plastic particles reshaped from recycled plastic film after being treated and then melted by a pelletizer.

    The first-grade recycled material refers to the leftover material that is not contaminated with impurities, such as the edge of the online slitting of the blown film machine, and the plastic punched in the production of vest bags.

    The recycled plastic particles processed with these leftover materials have better transparency. The quality of the particles formed by the pelletizer can rival that of the new material, so it is called the first-grade recycled plastic particles or the super-grade recycled plastic particles.

    The second-grade recycled material refers to the recycled film that has been used once. It is judged by observing the transparency, brightness and surface roughness of recycled plastic particles formed by the pelletizer.

    The third-grade recycled material refers to materials that have been used twice or more. The elasticity, toughness and other properties of the recycled plastic particles formed by the pelletizer are not outstanding, so the material can only be used for injection molding. The first-grade and second-grade recycled plastic particles can be used for film blowing.

    Price grades of recycled materials:

    1. First-grade recycled plastic particles: 70-80% of the price of new raw materials;
    2. Second-grade recycled plastic particles: 50-70% of the price of new raw materials;
    3. Third-grade recycled plastic particles: 30-50% of the price of new raw materials;
    4. The above price ratio is for reference only

    About 30% of food worldwide is wasted due to the lack of proper packaging. By 2050, the global population is expected to reach 10 billion. As urbanization is accelerated, proper food packaging is urgently needed during transportation from the place of origin to various cities to avoid unnecessary loss.

    In addition, as the industry is growing, a great deal of food packaging applies barrier films from Blown Film Extrusion Lines to extend the shelf life, which reduces costs and increases sales and storage cycles.

    Therefore, cutting-edge barrier films composed of 7 to 9 layers are in great demand in the food industry.

    Compared with the single-layer blown film machine, the multi-layer co-extrusion blown film machine requires more screws and purchase costs to produce the film.

    The selection of the multi-layer co-extrusion blown film machine depends on the application scenarios of the target film produced. If the film produced is mainly used as the packaging material for heavy packaging, high-end food bags, vacuum packaging bags, liquid packaging bags, etc., it needs functions including fragrance preservation, freshness preservation, corrosion protection, air tightness, and extended shelf life. A single-layer and single-characteristic film can never live up to these functions.

    To produce a film that is qualified as a packaging material, and blow and co-extrude materials with a variety of characteristics(such as breathability, heat preservation, toughness, etc.) to form a multifunctional plastic composite film, we have to choose a multi-layer co-extrusion blown film machine.

    The purpose we choose a multi-layer co-extrusion blown film machine is to give full play to the advantages of multiple materials and avoid the shortcomings of a single material or single-layer blown film machine. Taking the PP/PE co-extrusion blown film machine as an example, the machine combines the high hardness of the PP material and the high brightness of the PE material to produce a film that has the characteristics of both.

    We have the following models of multi-layer co-extrusion blown film machines:

    1. Two-layer co-extrusion blown film machine,
    2. Three-layer co-extrusion blown film machine,
    3. Five-layer co-extrusion blown film machine,
    4. Seven-layer co-extrusion blown film machine, etc.

    For example, The five-layer co-extrusion blown film machine mainly uses plastic particles with gas barrier properties, such as HDPE, MHDPE, LDPE, LLDPE, MLLDPE, PA, EVOH, etc., to produce food packaging films that require fragrance preservation, freshness preservation, corrosion protection, air tightness, and extended shelf life.

    Multi-layer co-extrusion is to extrude multiple layers of plastic particles from one die at the same time. Most food packaging films and special films are produced by this co-extrusion lamination.

    Extrusion molding is used due to its volume of productivity, speed, low cost, flexibility, and post-extrusion altercation option.

    With extrusion molding, you can produce a large volume of plastics effectively and efficiently.

    It is also cheaper than other molding types in that you can reuse waste materials, making production less expensive, unlike with other molding types like blow molding.

    Your blown film extrusion machine can also work for long hours, allowing for long productivity time for as long as 24 hours in a day, increasing the productivity of your machine and products.

    Extrusion molding is also flexible in that it is flexible in the production of materials, and can produce products with cross-section and products with mixed plastic attribute.

    With extrusion molding, you can also alter production because after products are extruded, they remain warm, giving room for you to mold and remold them into more desirable shapes.

    Your machine can produce up to 60 feet length products at a go. You tend to be more productive with extrusion molding, and at a cheaper cost compared to other molding types.

    The extrusion process is not suitable for iron and iron metal extrusion.

    Producing an object with iron alloys may ruin your blown film extrusion machine because they are not fit for production.

    Some of the plastic materials fit for the extrusion process are polyethylene, polypropylene, nylon, polycarbonate, acrylic, polyvinyl chloride, ABS, polystyrene, and nylon. 

    Any other material apart from the iron will extrude perfectly shaped objects that you have in mind.

    The materials that are commonly used for extrusion are metals, polymers, ceramics, concrete, and foodstuff. 

    However, before you pick out the materials to use in your machine, consider the viscosity and the melting point differences of the materials.

    The viscosity of material has to do with its resistance to flow. You know your material needs to flow so that it can be easily extruded out of the die.
