The Possibility of Making a Composite Material from Waste Plastic

This work focuses on the Possibility of Making a Composite Material from à sand dune (A natural source abounds) and recycled height density polythene (HDPEr) by mixing the amount. The composite has been designated as roof tile. An experimental test program was conducted on the polymer roof tile containing different percentages (30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70% and 80%) of recycled (HDPEr) from the weight of the mixture. Experimental tests were conducted on density, the breaking load by flexural and impermeability test. In this present study, the density of polymer roof tile varies from 1.379 to 1.873 g/ cm3.. The breaking strength by flexural of all polymer roof tile mix were below the resistance of Clay roof tile. A good impermeability gives compared to the control roof tile.
