Poly(vinyl chloride), a historical polymer still evolving

Carmen Mijangos et al.

Summary: Poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) is a widely used commodity polymer that is continuously evolving. It has recently been demonstrated that PVC is suitable for extrusion-based 3D printing, allowing the production of tailored flexible and ductile PVC objects. This article describes the important characteristics of PVC, including production and applications, as well as its drawbacks of thermal degradation and plasticizer exudation. The article also discusses recent efforts and advances in overcoming these limitations and developing new applications through modification reactions and the use of PVC formulations in additive manufacturing.

Integration of techno-economic analysis and life cycle assessment for sustainable process design - A review

Roksana Mahmud et al.

Summary: For sustainable design, integrating techno-economic analysis (TEA) and life cycle assessment (LCA) is crucial for analyzing the relationships between technical, economic, and environmental performance. Integrated TEA-LCA tool can provide more information for trade-off analysis and reduce inconsistency in decision making. Further research is needed to develop methodological guidelines and software tools for integrated TEA-LCA analysis of emerging technologies at low TRLs.
