    Most products these days are made from a mix of different plastics, such as sneakers and electronics
    .
    These mixed plastics are difficult to recycle and use to make new products

    Researchers at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) have developed a custom material called polydiketoenamine (PDK) to address the mixed plastic recycling problem
