Description
Summary:The main objective here is to save our environment from the plastics. The plastic disposal is the biggest crisis for mankind all over the world. The ‘SWACH BHARATH’ mission is almost incomplete till we find a way for the disposal of waste plastic. Generally, when we talk about waste, it is always 90% plastic. By keeping this as the main motto, we must look into reuse of plastics instead of their disposal. Since plastic is not digestible in nature for prolonged years, reuse is the only solution. In this project we are going to develop p Waste Plastic and Waste Paper Composites (WPWPC). This will effectively utilize waste plastics and convert them into useful products. The Lapox-L12 is used as resin and K-6 as hardener for the combination. The tensile compression, bending and water absorption test will be conducted to check its compatibility.
