    Reviewing the Effect of Waste PET Strips as Fiber Reinforcement in Concrete

    By Pawan K. Hinge, Uday Singh Patil, Sanket G. Kalamkar, Rugved Dewaikar, Aishwarya Kale, Pranjal Wanve, Sanket Kanhere, Janhavi Bawankule, Vansh Kolhe

    Abstract: Polyethylene Terephthalate also known as PET is the most commonly and widely used petroleum polymer plastic in the packaging industry. It is a well-established fact that the non-biodegradability of all plastics is a hazard to the environment. Thus, effective management of this waste is necessary. Numerous researchers have carried out studies and attempts to incorporate this plastic waste into concrete for performance enhancement. Considering the possible utilization of this waste …
