Used Polyethylene Bags to form Electric Insulation Sheet and Tape: An Innovative Frugal Approach

Abstract

Polyethylene bags are ubiquitous in modern society, contributing significantly to environmental pollution due to their non-biodegradable nature. This research paper explores an innovative approach to recycling these bags by utilizing their different densities to create a thick sheet of polymer through a single-stroke manufacturing technique. By repurposing these discarded materials into a useful form, this approach not only addresses environmental concerns but also offers a sustainable solution to reduce waste and promote circular economy principles. This polymer sheet made by used plastic bags is served to Electrical industries for making Insulation sheet and tape. This solution can solve the problem of used poly bags in a better way for different manufacturing industries. The paper discusses the methodology, experimental results, potential applications, and environmental implications of this novel recycling process.
