Value-adding of polyester yarn scraps based on eco-design concepts

Abstract

The purpose of this research was to design and develop products from polyester yarn scraps according to an eco-economic design concept. The workpiece is formed by the compression molding machine used in the industrial system. Researchers studied the waste materials used in various processes of manufacturing in textile establishments to increase their value by designing a new product or by developing polyester yarn scraps. According to the research process, with the upcycle method that focuses on using resources for maximum value by turning the scarps into new products and eco-design concepts to increase the value of plastic polymer waste, one of the concepts of resource efficiency (4Rs) by recycling and design process. The research focuses on the process of polyester yarn scrap forming, especially from the textile industry, with the potential to be re formed to create new products with beautiful, shapes and unique patterns. From polyester yarn scarps through the extrusion process. By using the compression molding machine with a compression force of 80 tons, the temperature range and the time are controlled appropriately. Under the mold prototype hat from or flash mold.
