Abstract
A method of encapsulating modifiers in a depolymerized product is disclosed. In some embodiments the material undergoing depolymerization is one of polypropylene, polystyrene, and/or polyethylene. In some embodiments, the material is composed, at least partially, of recycled material. In some embodiments, the encapsulated modifiers are added to a formulation such as an asphalt, plastic lumber, plastic wood composite, a plastic formulation, a rubber formulation, an ink formulation, a coating formulation, and/or an adhesive formulation.

An encapsulated-modifier granule comprising:
- a shell made of a depolymerized wax;
- and
- a first-modifier located in said shell,
- wherein said depolymerized wax is formed by depolymerizing recycled polyethylene via a catalytic process.
An encapsulated-modifier granule comprising:
- a shell made of a depolymerized wax;
- and
- an at least one first-modifier located in said shell,
- wherein said depolymerized wax is formed by depolymerizing a recycled polypropylene via a catalytic process.
An encapsulated-modifier granule consisting essentially of:
- a shell made of a depolymerized wax;
- and
- a first-modifier located in said shell,
- wherein said depolymerized wax is formed by depolymerizing a recycled polypropylene via a catalytic process.
