  • Publication number: 20240076558
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for purifying a pyrolysis oil originating from the pyrolysis of waste including plastics by liquid/liquid extraction. This extraction is performed by means of a polar solvent that is immiscible with pyrolysis oil, for which a recovery rate is obtained greater than or equal to 0.95, this recovery rate being defined as the ratio of the extract volume over the initial volume of solvent, this extract being a phase containing the solvent which is immiscible with pyrolysis oil, recovered after agitation then decantation of a mixture of one part by volume of solvent with twenty-five parts by volume of pyrolysis oil at atmospheric pressure and at a temperature of 20° C.

  • Publication number: 20230323101
    Abstract: The invention relates to a polypropylene composition comprising: (a) a first metallocene-catalyzed polypropylene (RPP-A) which is homopolymer, or a random copolymer of propylene and of a co-monomer; and (b) a second metallocene-catalyzed polypropylene (RPP-B) which is a random copolymer of propylene and of a co-monomer; wherein said polypropylene composition has:- a total co-monomer content of at least 1.1% by weight relative to the total weight of said polypropylene composition, as determined by 13C NMR analysis, said co-monomer being an alpha-olefin different from propylene;- a melting temperature Tm of at least 130° C., measured by DSC; - a crystallization temperature Tc of at least 95.0° C., measured by DSC; - a ratio of weight average molecular weight (Mw) to number average molecular weight (Mn) [Mw/Mn] of at least 4.50;- a ratio of z-average molecular weight (Mz) to weight average molecular weight (Mw) [Mz/Mw] of at least 2.10; and- a co-monomer distribution ratio R(Mz)/R(Mn) higher than 0.

  • Publication number: 20220186009
    Abstract: The invention relates to a polypropylene composition comprising: (A) a first polypropylene which is a metallocene-catalyzed homopolymer, or a metallocene-catalyzed random copolymer of propylene and of a co-monomer having at most 0.5% by weight of co-monomer content, relative to the total weight of the random copolymer, as determined by 13C NMR analysis; and (B) a second polypropylene which is a metallocene-catalyzed random copolymer of propylene and of a co-monomer; wherein said polypropylene composition is as defined in claim 1. The present invention also relates to a process for the preparation of said polypropylene composition. The present invention also relates to an article comprising said polypropylene composition.
