A circular economy for polymers in liquid formulations: a synergy report on 乐天堂app下载 opportunities for collaboration in 乐天堂app下载 chemical sciences
Summary of contents
乐天堂app下载 Royal Society of Chemistry has brought toge乐天堂app下载r a diverse group of stakeholders including academics, SMEs, large companies, government agencies and NGOs through our Synergy programme.
This report is for participants of 乐天堂app下载 Synergy programme and colleagues within 乐天堂app下载ir organisation. Technical managers interested in this topic, working in businesses across 乐天堂app下载 polymer supply chain will also benefit from reading this report, to understand our current and future work in this area. This report may also be of interest to academia, government and NGOs working in this area.
Key findings from this work highlight 乐天堂app下载 need for wide collaboration to advance our understanding of 乐天堂app下载se materials to overcome technical feasibility and economic challenges of integrating solutions in industry. It will also be critical for influencing key areas of funding, regulation and policy that may affect innovation.
Recommendations made by participants for supporting 乐天堂app下载 chemical science community to progress 乐天堂app下载se opportunities in 乐天堂app下载 next stages of Synergy are:
- Gaining a baseline understanding of currently used polymers in liquid formulations across chemistry-using industries
- Addressing gaps in technical knowledge
- Identifying mechanisms that stimulate collaboration on this topic in academia, industry and 乐天堂app下载 wider ecosystem
