The recycling of polyvinylchloride (PVC) from waste electrical cables in blends with low-density polyethylene (LDPE) is here explored, focusing on the material's mechanical and physical responses. Factors influencing these responses were identified, and reasonable ranges of variability were estimated for each factor. A comprehensive test plan was subsequently devised to develop optimal PVC/LDPE blends. The samples were produced by melt-blending the polymers in a counter-rotating internal mixer followed by compression molding. The effects of suitable coupling additives were also evaluated to enhance phases adhesion. The study investigated the impact of various processing parameters on thermomechanical properties using ANOVA, while a specific focus on optimizing material toughness was pursued. This optimization aimed to maximize both elastic modulus and elongation at break, through the application of genetic algorithms. Introducing a 5 % compatibilizer significantly enhances the interface, resulting in a complex fracture surface facilitated by its presence. Higher mixing temperatures promote better dispersion and distribution of PVC and the compatibilizer within the LDPE matrix, yielding a more uniform and interconnected structure. Increased PVC content correlates with reduced elastic modulus in the blend. The inclusion of a compatibilizer plays a vital role in counteracting the negative effects of PVC particles on stiffness, acting as a bridge to enhance interactions with the matrix and thereby improving interfacial adhesion and overall structure. The study offers insights into enhancing the recyclability of PVC from waste cables and optimizing the mechanical performance of the resultant materials.
