Abstract
Growing usage of radiation crosslinked plastic materials and utilization of their advantageous properties might raise a question of their future recycling. This paper deals with utilization of recycled irradiated polyamide 6 (rPA6x) which is used as a filler into low and high-density polyethylene (LDPE/HDPE) in concentrations 10 and 30 %. Mechanical properties of such blends were investigated and compared. Both blends show similar trend at all observed material characteristics. Elastic modulus representing material stiffness grown with increasing amount of the filler. Ultimate tensile strength and impact toughness decreased and hardness slightly increased. All the obtained results show that it is possible to use recycled radiation crosslinked PA6 as a filler but it is necessary to count with properties change.
