Popis: The process of moulding for three layer bottles made of a recycled polymer layer injected between two virgin polymer layers is studied in depth. It consists of the following two transfers which take place simultaneously: the heat transfer by conduction through the thickness of the bottle and the mould, as well as at the polymer/bottle interface, and by convection at the internal surface of the bottle where air is located; the diffusion through the thickness of the bottle of the pollutant initially located in the recycled layer. On the other hand, the final material is tested as a bottle in contact with a liquid. Some results of concern are worth noting. Regardless of the temperature of the mould and the surrounding atmosphere (20 or 40°C), the temperature is rapidly decreased through the bottle. As a result, a slight transfer of the potential pollutant is attained at the end of the moulding process. Thus, with the parameters considered for the diffusion of the pollutant, and especially the tempera...
