RECYCLING OF PLASTIC WASTE IN COCONUT FIBRE AND COAL AS REINFORCEMENT: A REVIEW
Keywords:
Recycling, Plastic waste, Coconut fibre, Coal, FillersAbstract
In the twenty-first century, researchers face difficulty searching for high-quality, lightweight, and biodegradable materials. Researchers started a vigorous paradigm shift from synthetic polymers to natural fibers and minerals as a result of this. One advantage is that these fillers are widely available in our nation. Waste made of plastic is strewn all over Nigerian streets, landfills, and dumpsites. There are a lot of studies on recycling plastic waste in the literature, but not much is known about ternary composites made of coal and fiber in thermoplastic. The qualities of non-waxy coconut fiber are impacted by the loss of interfacial adhesion, whereas waxy coconut fiber improves thermal and mechanical attributes without compromising the melting behavior of polymers. Additionally, a combination of coal and polymer exhibits gaps and cracks, indicating that the coal's interfacial adhesion is weak. Coal or coconut fiber adheres better to polymers when compatibilizers or binding agents are added. The characteristics of coal and fibers from coconut as reported by the authors will be thoroughly examined in this study.
