Abstract

A composite board has been successfully fabricated from domestic waste. Waste consisting of a mixture of vegetables, plastic, paper and fabric was used as filler, while polyvinyl acetate was used as adhesive. The fabrication used simple methods of mixing and hot pressing. The characterization of the mechanical strength was carried out using a Universal Testing Machine. To increase the strength of the composite, it was necessary to vary the size of the fiber. The addition of laminated glass fibers and repeated heating on hot presses resulted in a composite waste board with strength equivalent to albasiah wood or medium quality commercial particle board.
