Researchers at IIT Madras, Columbia University and Colorado State University in the US have developed a technique to merge diverse plastics into strong and recyclable materials.
According to officials, this multi-institutional team has developed a technique by which different types of plastics can be combined to produce new composite plastics that are not only strong but can also be reprocessed and recycled.
The findings of this research, which could potentially revolutionise the plastics recycling industry, have been published in the peer-reviewed journal Nature.
