Abstract: The invention relates to a method of solubilizing expanded polystyrene (EPS), in which the EPS is brought into contact with at least one initial solvent, enabling the transition of the EPS from an expanded solid state to the gel state. The aforementioned gel is subsequently treated with at least one complementary solvent that is different from the initial solvent, enabling the solubilization thereof such as to produce a true solution. The invention also relates to the product thus obtained and to the use of said product.

Abstract: Polymer composition comprising more than 50 % by weight, with respect to the total weight of the composition, of a nonfunctionalized polyolefin (PO1), and more than 0.5 % by weight, with respect to the total weight of the composition, of at least one polyolefin comprising carboxyl grafts [polyolefin (POg)] which is functionalized by grafting using at least one grafting agent chosen from ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acids, their anhydrides and their metal salts, at least a portion of the carboxyl grafts of which is neutralized by a metal, optionally by the neutralization, concomitant with and/or subsequent to the grafting, of the carboxyl grafts by at least one metal base, and which has been synthesized from a nonfunctionalized polyolefin (PO2), at least 0.5 % by weight and at most 50 % by weight of the repeat units of which are derived from at least one ethylenically unsaturated monomer which has a different chemical nature from that of the repeat units of the nonfunctionalized polyolefin (PO).
