Abstract

During research, injection moulded samples were prepared from recycled poly(ethylene-terephthalate) granulate, and their mechanical properties were investigated as a function of time. To understand the changes in mechanical properties, both morphology of injection moulded samples and recycled granulates were investigated. A three-phase morphological model was applied for the evaluation of morphological properties while mechanical properties were determined by tensile and impact tests. Relationship was found between morphological and mechanical characteristics as a function of time elapsed since production. Crystalline ratio, tensile strength, and modulus of injection moulded specimens increased while impact strength decreased in the four weeks after production.
