  • Patent number: 11851535
    Abstract: A copolymer composition including a method having a first step involving heating and submerging of water-resistant polymer into a solvent bath until the water-resistant polymer dissolves into the solvent bath resulting in a water-like solution. A second step includes precipitating the water-like solution forming a wax within the water-like solution. A third step involving filtering and distilling of the water-solution separating the wax from the solvent bath. A fourth step involving dispersing of the wax in a liquid carrier resulting in a combination. A fifth step involving polymerizing of the wax into the water-resistant polymer by introducing the combination into water-soluble polymer during an extrusion process resulting in a homogeneous mixture. A sixth step involving programming the water solubility of the homogeneous mixture.

  • Patent number: 11760859
    Abstract: A dynamic process for upcycling polymers. Polymers from a diverse post-consumer waste stream are gathered in a mixture. The mixture is extruded and combined with a liquid additive containing a particular PE wax at the verge of polymerization. The liquid additive is repolymerized into LDPE to form pellets. The pellets are delivered into a reactor and submerged in a suitable solvent to dissolve the LDPE. Causing a gradual and orderly separation of the remaining polymers from one another, resulting in a layered substrate. The suitable solvent, enzymes or depolymerizing compatible chemical is delivered into the reactor through independent pipes attached to tanks containing the suitable depolymerizing agent. The process repeats depolymerizing the layered substrate layer by layer with additional suitable solvents/enzymes or depolymerizing agents for each of the polymers resulting in the dissolving of the remaining polymers in an orderly manner producing a layered wax-like material for upcycling.

  • Patent number: 11639424
    Abstract: An extrusion process of a manufacturing system for plastic which also serves as a depolymerization reactor through the use of melting point's temperature as activation energy and liquid solvents. The melting point activation energy and liquid solvents are used to generate a certain level of depolymerization at the manufacturing process of any given plastic product. The process includes several variables that are used in determining a final additive that is introduced at the beginning of the extrusion process. The final additive includes a mixture of a liquid solvents, a molecular filler, chemical carriers, and stabilizers.

  • Patent number: 10947332
    Abstract: A copolymer composition including a method having a first step involving heating and submerging of LDPE into a heptane bath until the LDPE dissolves into the heptane bath resulting in a water-like solution. A second step including precipitating of the water-like solution forming a PE wax within the water-like solution. A third step involving filtering and distilling of the water-solution separating the PE wax from the heptane bath. A fourth step involving dispersing of the PE wax in a liquid carrier resulting in a combination. A fifth step involving polymerizing of the PE wax into LDPE by introducing the combination into PVA during an extrusion process resulting in a homogeneous mixture. A sixth step involving programming the water solubility of the homogeneous mixture. Resulting in the copolymer composition having programmable water solubility, shelf-life stability and quality in the presence of moisture or liquids for a predetermined length of time.
