Recycling of Waste (PET) Plastic for The Production of Ceiling/Wall Tile Using Sawdust as Reinforcement

Abstract

The principal aim of this study is to recycle plastic wastes with sawdust as an additive into a variety of products like plastic tiles (ceiling tile), which are Civil Engineering materials. Therefore, with improved recycling process plastic wastes can be converted into useful products for the betterment of the environment. Presents a comprehensive investigation into the feasibility and effectiveness of utilizing recycled plastic Materials in the production of ceiling tiles made with waste plastic and sawdust. This study focuses on the development and evaluation of ceiling tiles incorporating recycled plastic waste. The research methodology involved the selection of appropriate plastic waste sources, processing techniques, and formulation of composite materials. Various mix designs were tested to optimize the ceiling tiles mechanical properties, and durability.
