A simple and economical process has been developed that allows the recovery of scrap RIM thermoset polymer generated in the manufacturing of fascia, body panels and other parts. This process consists of a size reduction process of the thermoset polymer into a very fine powder and it's subsequent incorporation into virgin raw materials. Original polymer performance and surface quality are maintained. This “regrind” process provides positive environmental and economical effects to molders of RIM polymers.
