AB  - Materials from green resources boast a low carbon footprint, forming the foundation of the circular economy approach in materials science. Thus, in this study, waste poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) was subjected to depolymerization using propylene glycol (PG), and subsequent polycondensation with bio-based maleic anhydride (MA) produced unsaturated polyester resin (b-UPR). Bio-derived acryloyl-modified Kraft lignin (KfL-A) served as a vinyl reactive filler in the b-UPR matrix to create b-UPR/KfL-A composites. The structural characterization of KfL-A and b-UPR involved the use of FTIR and NMR techniques. The mechanical properties of the newly fabricated composites were assessed through tensile strength, Vickers microhardness, and dynamic mechanical tests. The addition of KfL-A to the rigid b-UPR matrix enhanced material flexibility, resulting in less stiff and hard materials while preserving composite toughness. For instance, incorporating 10 wt.% of KfL-A in b-UPR led to a 17% reduction in hardness, a 48% decrease in tensile strength, and a 20% reduction in toughness. Positive environmental impact was achieved by incorporation of 64 wt.% of renewable and recycled raw material. Analogously prepared b-UPR/KfL composites showed structural inhomogeneity and somewhat better mechanical properties. Transmission (TEM) and scanning (SEM) electron microscopies revealed a suitable relationship between mechanical and structural properties of composites in relation to the extent of KfL-A addition. The UL94V flammability rating confirmed that flame resistance increased proportionally with the KfL-A addition. Once deposited in a landfill, these composites are expected to disintegrate more easily than PET, causing less harm to the environment and contributing to sustainability in the plastics cycle.

AB  - Predmet ovog istraživanja je postupak proizvodnje regranulata polivinil hlorida (PVC) korišćenjem plastifikatora sintetisanog iz recikliranog poli(etilen tereftalata) (PET). Na ovaj način je sintetisan plastifikator koji ne predstavlja rizik po zdravlje ljudi i životnu sredinu u skladu sa prinicima hemijskog lizinga i zelene hemije. Dobijeni plastifikator je okarakterisan primenom elementalne analize, FTIR, i NMR spektroskopije i određivanjem hidroksilnog i kiselinskog broja. Ispitivana su mehanička svojstva materijala dobijenih na bazi recikliranog PVC i plastifikatora iz PET-a prema standardnim metodama.
AB  - The subject of this research is the production process of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) regranulate using a plasticizer synthesized from recycled poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET). In this way, a plasticizer was synthesized that does not pose a risk to human health and the environment in accordance with the principles of chemical leasing and green chemistry. The obtained plasticizer was characterized using elemental analysis, FTIR, and NMR spectroscopy and determination of hydroxyl and acid number. The mechanical properties of materials obtained on the basis of recycled PVC and plasticizers from PET were tested according to standard methods.
