Research Projects: Company Name: Institute of Chemical Technology, Aug 2010 to April 2014 Senior Research Fellow ? University Grants Commission Project Handled: ?Environmentally degradable Polyolefins? Job Profile: Polyolefins are widely used in packaging films since its inception for their versatile properties on offer such as chemical inertness, transparency, wide range of temperature flexibility and ease of processing. However, this economically feasible material?s presence in the waste stream poses a serious problem when there is lack of efficient end of life management of plastic waste. The metal based oxodegradable additives have a lot to promise but there are drawbacks which haven?t allowed the technology to mean a lot in commercial sense. The research work has focused upon organo-modification of magnesium aluminum silicates to induce oxodegradation in the polyolefins. Magnesium aluminum silicates are usually very hydrophilic and incompatible with the hydrophobic nature of linear low density polyethylene. The inorganic clay can be modified by increasing the intergallery space of these silicate layers making it suitable for the entry of the polymer. Upon organic modification, these silicates gain compatibility with LLDPE thereby becoming hydrophobic.?
