In this study, the main processing and formulation factors that affect the performance of panels manufactured with post-consumer TetraPak^® and high-density polyethylene compounds were analyzed. The water uptake of the materials during immersion was also studied to identify the limitations on the application of this compound. Before obtaining the boards, the raw material was ground until flakes, and then blended varying the amount of high-density polyethylene added to the TetraPak^® from 5 to 20 wt%. The boards were obtained by thermo-compression and tested according to ASTM standards. The results show that mechanical strength depends more on the pressing time than formulation. On the other hand, the specimens tested by immersion in water for 17 days exhibited water absorption of 60 wt% about its dry weight. Even with this amount of humidity, its structural stability was not compromised.

在这项研究中，影响与消费后利乐包制造的面板的性能的主要加工和配制因素^®和高密度聚乙烯的化合物进行了分析。还研究了浸泡过程中材料的吸水率，以确定该化合物应用的局限性。获得电路板前，将原料进行粉碎直到薄片，然后共混改变添加到所述利乐包高密度聚乙烯的量^®5至20重量％。这些板是通过热压获得的，并根据ASTM标准进行了测试。结果表明，机械强度更多地取决于压制时间而不是配方。另一方面，通过浸入水中17天进行测试的样品表现出相对于其干重为60重量％的吸水率。即使在这样的湿度下，其结构稳定性也不会受到损害。
