Recent technological advances in the de-vulcanization of waste elastomer scrap allows for the creation of anew category of polymeric materials. De-vulcanization technology produces elastomeric raw materialstechnically and economically suitable for blending with thermoplastics. The resultant blends mimic thephysical and processing properties of co- and ter- block thermoplastic elastomers.NRT Canada Inc. who has developed and patented a de-vulcanization technology for scrap thermosetelastomeric waste will collaborate with Lambton College's Centre for Industrial Material Development (CIMD)through this project is to learn how to incorporate NRT's de-vulcanized material with varying plastics toprovide materials that emulate the physical and technical properties of thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs).The Lambton College research team will include a research technician, research scientist and three researchstudents who will work closely with NRT Canada Inc to improve the function of the recycled material. Theresults of the project will provide economic benefit to NRT by increasing market opportunity, manufacturingcapabilities and cost competiveness. The results will also provide economic and environmental impact toCanada and the region by creating jobs, increasing exporting and global competiveness and enhancing cleantechnologies.

在废弹性体废料的去硫化方面的最新技术进步允许创建新类别的聚合物材料。脱硫化技术生产的弹性体原材料在技术上和经济上都适合与热塑性塑料共混。所得共混物模拟了共嵌段和三嵌段热塑性弹性体的物理和加工性能.已经开发了一种用于废弃热固性弹性体废物的去硫化技术并获得专利的NRT将与兰顿学院的工业材料开发中心（CIMD）合作，通过该项目学习如何将NRT的去硫化材料与各种塑料结合，以提供模仿热塑性弹性体（TPE）的物理和技术性能的材料。兰顿学院的研究团队将包括一名研究技术人员，研究科学家和三名研究生将与NRT加拿大公司密切合作，以改善回收材料的功能。该项目的结果将通过增加市场机会、制造能力和成本竞争力为NRT提供经济效益。研究结果还将通过创造就业机会、增加出口和全球竞争力以及加强清洁技术，为加拿大和该地区带来经济和环境影响。
