Considering the increasing use of plastics in vehicles, the need for sustainable management is becoming a matter of concern. The reintroduction of plastic originated from post-consumer waste in the vehicle manufacturing loop can also be a solution to meet the recent EU ELVs (end-of-life vehicles) legislation in terms of sustainability. This study focuses on post-consumer polypropylene (PP) compounds destined for automotive applications by assessing their morphological, thermal, and mechanical properties. Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) techniques were used. Since the ageing of these materials, caused by the thermo-oxidative degradation process, may compromise their performances, a comprehensive study of their behavior, in comparison to the virgin compound counterpart, was necessary to evaluate the fossil replacement possibility. Furthermore, an additional investigation was conducted after subjecting the materials to UV ageing in order to simulate the degradation effect of solar radiation, with the aim of determining the suitability of the recycled materials in long-term applications. In summary, the results support the feasibility of using recycled post-consumer materials mixed with virgin grade in automotive production, highlighting the stability of thermal and mechanical properties, critical for efficient manufacturing. This research underlines the noteworthy progress in the circularity of automotive plastics, providing a sustainable solution for integrating plastic material waste into new vehicle production.
