Abstract

The process of modifying recycled polystyrene has been studied, and the optimal conditions for the processing of modified compositions have been established. The effect of the content of thermoplastic elastomers and montmorillonite on the physical and mechanical characteristics and morphology of the secondary polymer formed after thermoforming food packaging from polystyrene sheets has been studied.
