If you already know that it is 50/50 blend what is the necessity of quantification? Further both recycled and Virgin PP are chemically same so impossible to make out amount of recycled from virgin PP.

Rajendran Muthuraj

You are absolutely right, I have given the similar information to our customers (they want to know is the any technique available).

Thanks for your comment on this regard.

Cheers
