  Production of Polymer Composite using Thermoplastics, Sharp Sand and Sawdust: Mix Techniques

  By Ikenyiri P.N., ISOR B.B., Ukpaka C.P., Izionwuru V.

  Abstract: This research work focuses on producing a polymer composite using a thermoplastic. PET is nonbiodegradable and contribute majorly to water and land pollution in this research work an attempt has been made to utilize PET waste plastic in manufacturing fibre-reinforced polymer composite by combining sawdust which is another waste product from woodwork operations and sand, a major component in construction, whose use is greatly threatening the ecosystem. The fibre-reinforced polymers …
