Abstract
This work reports on the mechanical (tension, flexion, and impact) and physical (density and hardness) properties of polyester recycled tire fibers (RTFs) mixed with ground tire rubber and linear low-density polyethylene with and without styrene–ethylene–butylene–styrene grafted maleic anhydride as a compatibilizer. In particular, the effect of RTF content (10, 25, and 50 wt%), extruder screw speed (110, 180, and 250 r/min), and temperature profiles (extrusion and injection molding) was studied. The results showed that the best properties were obtained at the highest RTF content (50%) and extruder screw speed (250 r/min) combined with the lowest temperature profile in both extrusion and injection molding when the compatibilizer was added.
