Plastic is a polymeric substance that can be moulded or formed, typically by the use of heat and pressure. Plasticity, when combined with other specific features such as low density, low electrical conductivity, transparency, and toughness, enables plastics to be produced into a wide range of items.
These include polyethylene terephthalate (PET) drinking bottles that are durable and lightweight, PVC garden hoses that are flexible, foamed polystyrene food containers, and polymethyl methacrylate shatterproof windows.
Consumers are familiar with many of the chemical names of the polymers used as plastics, however some are better recognised by abbreviations or commercial names.
Thus, PET and PVC are common names for polyethylene terephthalate and polyvinyl chloride, respectively, whereas Styrofoam and Plexiglas are trademarked terms for foamed polystyrene and polymethyl methacrylate (or Perspex).
Plastics are commonly categorised as "commodity" or "specialty" resins by industrial fabricators. (The term resin was coined in the early days of the plastics industry to describe naturally occurring amorphous solids such as shellac and rosin.)
Commodity resins are low-cost polymers produced in large quantities for the most popular throwaway products and durable goods.
The Congo Plastics Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) takes an important step toward plastic waste management. President of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, has just inaugurated a new plant in Kinshasa, namely on the 12th street of the municipality of Limete Kingabwa.
OK Plast put the installation into service as part of its Kintoko initiative "This plant is the second of its sort in Africa after the one in Nigeria.
Kinshasa's recycling unit has a daily capacity of tonnes of and a storage of tonnes of compacted bottles. Bottle caps, crates for local breweries, seats, coolers, water pipes, and bottles of all sizes are made from spent plastic bottles.
