Rebirth of WEEE: Rethinking of PCR plastics and intelligent electrical appliances
Post Consumer Recycled plastics (PCR), mainly come from the plastics recycled from our daily consumer electronics, daily chemicals, cars and so on. It can be used to develop new electronic and electrical products through sorting, cleaning, processing and production.
Waste plastic is a key element obtained from the recycling and treatment of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE). The recycling of the waste plastic is an important step to practice sustainability and realize the ‘dual carbon goals’ which include China's pledge to peak its carbon dioxide emissions before 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality before 2060. The weight of waste plastic in all kinds of WEEE accounts for about 30-50%. According to the China Household Electric Appliances Research Institute, the scale of waste plastics solely from household appliances can reach 2 million tons in China. It is a huge market.
Among various eco-friendly plastics, PCR plastic is a highly competitive choice compared with other bio-based materials in terms of more stable supply and affordable price. Therefore, PCR plastics are widely used in consumer electronics and household appliances, such as routers, tablets, laptops, smart wearables, smart phones, smart speaker enclosures and other peripheral accessories.

ANHUI GUANHONG PLASTIC INDUSTRY CO., LTD.
ABS recycled material is the synthetic plastic of acrylonitrile, butadiene and styrene, and the graft copolymerization product of acrylonitrile, butadiene and styrene. It is named after the first letter of their English name. It is a kind of resin with high strength, good toughness and excellent comprehensive properties. It is widely used and commonly used as engineering plastics.
Purpose
Recycled materials (ABS recycled materials) are generally produced by the recycling and reuse of chemical products. Through some processing means, various corresponding products are manufactured. The properties of recycled materials (ABS recycled materials) are different due to different product needs. In this way, recycled materials can be used to produce different products because of the problem of world resources. More and more users use recycled materials, and plastic product manufacturers are more and more interested in the use of recycled materials (ABS recycled materials).
