N2 - Climate change is continuing, and more environmental awareness is required these days. In this context, plastics are a controversial topic. On top of this, a current plastics-based field of research is developing with great interest: soft robotics. Soft robots are generally made of elastomers, for which recycling is rather difficult. An implementation of recycling in soft robotics is still pending. This paper aims to show to what extent three typical materials used in soft robotics (Ecoflex 00-30, Elastosil M4601, and Sylgard 184) can be reintroduced in powder form into the manufacturing process after use and what mechanical properties such recyclates have.
