rPC often comes from regrinding a source of polycarbonate waste. This material is often considered for use in a pellet extrusion machine such as Gigabot X. Polycarbonate is not usually supported by recycling centers since it is grouped into resin code 7 with “other plastics”. Polycarbonate also risks producing bisphenol A, commonly known as BPA.
