| dc.description.abstract | This research illustrates and compares the analytical and behaviour of recycled waste plastic tiles and a conventional alumina ceramic tile. The melting point adopted for all waste plastic material was 60oC with a controlled cooling temperature method. The flexural strength and compression strength of the various plastic type used were conducted with a universal testing machine and these laboratory results were then used to simulate the recycled plastic tiles which were compared with those of alumina ceramic tile. A recycled waste plastic tile of 300 x 300 x 10mm was analysed with a central load for all recycled waste plastic types and were compared with those of alumina ceramic tile. The stresses, strain, deformations and force reactions were observed for all recycled waste plastic types and the alumina ceramic tile analysed. The results obtained from the analysis of the plates (tiles) specimen made of various recycled waste plastic was seen to have maximum deformations of 1.7499, 1.7445, 1.7242, 1.7499 and 1.556mm for water sachets, water bags, water bottles, polythene bags and alumina ceramic tile respectively and other parameters were also obtained. Also, the maximum use temperature for the various recycled waste plastic types were compared with that of the alumina ceramic tile. | en_US |
