| Abstract | Accumulation of textile waste on landfill site is gradually becoming a major issue for concern as it creates air, soil and water pollution directly or indirectly. Recycling of industrial textile waste is today's need. Thus, a research was carried out to study the mechanical properties of yarns obtained as waste from textile and fiber reinforced plastic unit of Ahmedabad city. Post-producer textile yarn waste which consisted of cotton, polyester, lycra were collected , chopped, mixed with glass fiber in their original form using epoxy resin in presence of a catalyst. Afterwards a sheet was produced. Later on the tensile, elongation, flexural and impact test were studied. It was observed that mixing of textile yarns with glass waste yarns reduces brittleness and hardness of glass yarns. |
