Abstract

An evaluation of the effect of soil burial on a wide variety of thermoplastic and thermoset plastic molding compounds has been completed for specimens interred eight years at the soil burial test plots in Georgia and New Mexico. In general, the effect of soil environment has been mild on most of the molded plastics. The most significant changes occur to those materials most sensitive to moisture. These changes take place independently of either burial site or depth of soil burial (6 and 18 inches).
