Scope

GB/T 40006.8-2021 is the English-translated version of 塑料 再生塑料 第8部分:聚酰胺(PA)材料.

Part 8 of China's national standard series for recycled plastics, covering polyamide. It specifies the classification and naming, the requirements, the test methods and the traceability. Nylon is the engineering plastic of under-bonnet automotive parts, electrical connectors, gears, and the fibre of carpets and fishing nets, and it is worth recycling because virgin polyamide is expensive and its production is energy-intensive. It shares polycarbonate's sensitivity to moisture at melt temperature and adds one of its own: most engineering polyamide is glass-filled, and every reprocessing pass breaks the fibres shorter, so the mechanical properties fall with each cycle in a way the polymer alone would not explain. That is why traceability appears in this part where it does not in the others - a recycled polyamide's usable properties depend on how many times it has been through a machine and on what filler it carries, and neither is visible in a bag of granules.

The plastics industry is an important pillar industry of the national economy. With the rapid development of my country's plastics industry and the large-scale use of plastic products, plastics Recycling and recycling is an important issue facing the industry and one of the ways for the sustainable development of plastics. At the same time, it is also a solution to "white pollution", etc. Environmental issues provide an effective way. At present, there is no product standard in the field of plastic recycling in my country, and there is no standard to follow in the industry. Therefore, GB/T 40006 "Plastic Re "Raw Plastics" series of national standards. According to the characteristics of plastic products, this series of standards is intended to be composed of 12 parts, of which the general rules of Part 1 stipulate General requirements for the naming, terminology, odor grade, restricted substance content, radioactivity, etc. of recycled plastics. The rest of the standards except for the general requirements of the Chinese In addition, the technical requirements for recycled plastics of this kind of material are specified according to the types of plastics. This series of standards is to be composed of the following 12 parts under the general title ``Plastic Recycled Plastics''.

1.General rules;

2.Polyethylene (PE) material;

3.Polypropylene (PP) material;
