dc.description.abstractThis paper reports on the developed magnetic board composite from waste materials for use in education sector as teaching aid. The composite material was prepared using iron fillings from metal machining (cutting) processes and sawdust obtained from wood waste. The determination of the sieve analysis of the two materials was carried out to obtain particle sizes of 0.4um and 1.0um for the iron fillings and sawdust respectively. The two materials were mixed in various percentage to obtain optimum composition from the aggregates formed. An appropriate binder was used for binding the various composition together. The resulting aggregates were cast into the required shapes and sizes, compacted and allowed to dry at ambient temperature for 5 days. Durability test was carried out for tensile stress, compressive stress and the material density. The performance evaluation of the composite was carried out by embedding the composite material into the prepared board used for charts, graphical image and data as well as improvement in time utilization during a 60-minute lecture period.en_US
