New ASTM Standard Covers Society of the Plastic Industry's Resin Identification Code
SPI recognized the importance of the involvement of the technical stakeholder community in updating and maintaining the RIC. In 2008, SPI approached ASTM about adopting the RIC system as an ASTM standard. RIC is now covered in a new ASTM International standard, ASTM D7611, Practice for Coding Plastic Manufactured Articles for Resin Identification. The new standard was developed by Subcommittee D20.95 on Recycled Plastics, part of ASTM International Committee D20 on Plastics.
"Since their beginnings in the mid-1800s, plastics have continued to evolve and new materials and applications have been developed to meet societal needs," said SPI President and CEO William Carteaux. "These innovations have continued since SPI developed the original Resin Identification Code more than 20 years ago and we fully support ASTM's work to involve more stakeholders and develop a new standard that modernizes the Code."
Thomas Pecorini, technology fellow, Eastman Chemical Co., and a D20 member, notes that while the RIC system was originally designed to assist sorters in waste recovery facilities, it has since taken on additional uses. "Scrap brokers use the RIC to trade materials," says Pecorini. "Municipalities use the RICs to tell their constituents which resins are acceptable for collection."
In addition to these uses, Pecorini notes that some states use the RIC system to charge fees for certain packaging products, and brand owners and retailers use the RIC when considering end-of-life options for packaging products.
Pecorini says that ASTM D7611 will be used by those who buy, sell and trade waste plastics that have completed their originally intended life. "It will be used by municipalities, waste collectors, scrap brokers, recyclers, brand owners, retailers and anyone else interested in understanding and directing the end of life of plastic materials."
# Now that ASTM D7611 has been published, D20.95 plans to consider the following questions for future revisions of the standard: Are the chasing arrows surrounding the numbers still appropriate?
# What are the more specific definitions that might be needed for each resin identification code?
# What are the criteria for adding new codes?
All parties interested in contributing to these discussions regarding potential revisions to ASTM D7611 are invited to join the task group responsible for the new standard, D20.95.01 (www.astm.org/JOIN). To purchase ASTM standards, visit www.astm.org and search by the standard designation number, or contact ASTM Customer Relations (phone: 610-832-9585; service@astm.org).
ASTM International is one of the largest international standards development and delivery systems in the world. ASTM International meets the World Trade Organization (WTO) principles for the development of international standards: coherence, consensus, development dimension, effectiveness, impartiality, openness, relevance and transparency. ASTM standards are accepted and used in research and development, product testing, quality systems and commercial transactions.

Kim Kardashian Talks Botox
Airing this past Sunday, Kim Kardashian under went Botox® treatments to her crowsfeet around her eyes on Keeping Up with the Kardashians. Kardashian who probably is no stranger to plastic surgery procedures had a mild meltdown about the bruising that occurred under her eyes from the product.
As a result of a flood of attention and emails from America, Kardashian released this statement on her blog:
“I’ve been getting lots of emails and comments regarding the botox episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians so I wanted to address this today to clear some things up.
On the show you saw I had some bruising around my eyes after the procedure, which is totally natural, but because I hadn’t looked into the side effects, I freaked out. In no way was Dr. Kassabian a bad doctor… it wasn’t a botched job at all!!
I am not against botox, and I would never judge anyone else for getting any kind of surgical or non surgical procedure, but I think when you’re young there are other ways you can look after your skin, and some amazing products on the market, like Fusion Beauty’s Illumifill, that help keep you looking young and beautiful. Botox just wasn’t necessary for me at this age.”
Besides the obvious paid product placement, I feel Kardashian handled the matter well. She admitted she didn’t appropriately prepare and that she over-reacted.
My money still is on that shell go back for another syringe though!

Ticona develops thermoformable Vectra LCP
“With high melt viscosity and melt strength, this new LCP is ideally suited for extrusion and thermoforming processes,” said Edward Hallahan, marketing manager, high-performance polymers. “Initially, Ticona is offering a 40 percent mineral filled grade, Vectra Trex 541, which provides impact and notched impact strengths significantly higher than those of other mineral-filled grades.”
Vectra Trex 541 provides the following performance attributes, according to Ticona:
* High heat deflection temperature of 245°C;
* 20 percent improvement in impact performance versus standard 40 percent mineral-filled LCP;
* Higher melt viscosity – up to three times greater than standard 40 percent mineral-filled LCP.
Ticona developed Vectra Trex 541 for use by customers who extrude sheets and films that can be thermoformed to finished components. Suggested applications include:
* Medical – for use in sterilizable trays and equipment;
* Aerospace – meeting flame, smoke and toxicity requirements for use in aircraft interior applications;
* Semiconductor – providing high stiffness and a low coefficient of thermal expansion for use in chip carriers.
Vectra Trex 541 extends application possibilities for LCPs in the kitchenware and food industries, says Ticona. It can be vacuum-formed into large-format sheets or cooking pans capable of heating up and cooling down rapidly.
According to the company, cookware made of LCP is an excellent alternative to baking pans and casseroles made of metal, “which are harder to clean, noisy and heavy.”
Ticona is a unit of Dallas-based Celanese Corp.
