Abstract
There is an increasing amount of plastic waste generated all around the world, especially by developed countries. Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) is one of the most widely used plastics in the world and after recycling it should be used economically and productively. The need to develop an appropriate use for recycled material is imminent. A composite is developed using recycled PET matrix reinforced with fiberglass powder, sawdust and gypsum to maximize the sustainable potential of recycled materials. Izod Impact test specimens with varying weight fraction of fiberglass powder as 12%, 15%, and 19% made as per ASTM D256 standard are tested and the results are discussed in this paper.
