Abstract: The described aspects relate to a dust suppression resin, and a method of obtaining the dust suppression resin through the chemical recycling of thermoplastic polymer Poly(Ethylene Terephthalate) or PET. The method for obtaining the resin includes a depolymerization reaction applied to the Poly(Ethylene Terephthalate) polymer, such as post-consumer PET fragments, in the presence of the quaternary ammonium cationic surfactant. The method further includes subsequently adding a hydrophilic substance to increase a final viscosity of the resin. Other additives such as lignin extracted from vegetables, such as leaves and branches of trees, can also be added to make the resin more hydrophobic.

Abstract: The proposed invention is a process for obtaining the ore dust suppressant resin with the chemical recycling of Poly thermoplastic polymer (Ethylene Terephthalate) or PET. It is proposed a method for obtaining the resin by using the depolymerization reaction methodology of the Poly polymer (Ethylene Terephthalate) obtained from post-consumption PET bottles, in the presence of cationic surfactant hexadeciltrimetrilamonio bromide (CTAB). The resin is thus obtained being subsequently added to the same PVP K-90 (Polyvinylpyrrolidone) as increasing load on the final viscosity of the resin. Other additives such as lignin extracted from plants such as leaves and tree branches may also be added, in this case, incorporated to make the resin more hydrophobic.
