| Abstract: | Disposal of waste plastic bags is a major problem. It is non-biodegradable it mainly consists of low density polyethylene bags, plastic containers and bottles. Burning of these waste plastic bags causes environmental pollution. The main objective of the present project is to utilize waste plastic bags for designing of tiles in building of structures and rooms for general public for societal benefits. Among different plastic solid waste being generated, plastic bags composed of LDPE are major source of waste. Thus in this study, waste plastic bags are used as matrix reinforced with fly ash, another type of commercial waste, to make composite tiles which can be put to use for building structures for societal benefit. The results showed that filler loadings have positive effect on the properties of plastic waste matrix. Thus the composite tiles fabricated put forward a newer approach for re-utilization of waste plastic material in our day to day life and industry in an environmentally friendly and economical way. They can be used to build structure which will be light weight, resistant to corrosion, chemically resistant, low cost of production, increased service life and most importantly put into use what is the menace for society- Plastic waste. |
