Can Shoes Be Recycled? Wanhua Chemical Conquers Technical Problems In Shoe Material Industry

On December 5, peak sports annual event - future sports technology conference was held in Beijing. During the activity, Wanhua chemical and peak sports jointly released the full material sole recycling scheme.

The recycling scheme of all material sole is to use polyurethane material reaction molding technology to process the broken waste insole material and make a new one. At present, only a small part of plastic waste can be recycled. In most cases, worn-out shoes will be directly abandoned and burned, so the scheme can be fully utilized Polyurethane materials The excellent adhesion and foaming properties, combined with the reaction technology of high-efficiency integrated molding, realize the unification of waste material treatment process and new product production process, make the material 100% cycle again and again, the whole process is efficient and convenient.

It is worth mentioning that in the face of a wide range of insole materials on the market, polyurethane material reaction molding technology can be widely used in EVA, PU, TPU and other materials, with high technology application tolerance, which can fundamentally solve the current problems Shoe material The recycling problem of the industry. Through the addition of different material particles in the process of polyurethane injection molding, the finished insole can achieve lightweight, while ensuring sufficient elasticity and stability, and improving the comprehensive performance of the whole sole. At the same time, the process makes use of the adhesive ability of polyurethane, and no additional sizing is needed in the whole process, which greatly improves the production efficiency.

With "chemistry, better life" as the mission of the enterprise Wanhua chemical We not only pursue excellence in the process of providing high-quality raw materials, but also continuously promote the long-term practice of sustainable and green environmental protection based on the entire industry ecosystem. We are dedicated to a pair of "Circular" shoes, and we hope to work together with more partners to protect the earth's ecological environment! remarks:
