Hi, I know it’s posible to add a filler to chewed gum to recycle and reuse this gum, but I’ve been thinking about the polyvinyl acetate separation from it to get products from it, do you know how could I? Thanks.

What are the other ingredients in the gum? What are the concentrations of each constituent?
