Effect of Organic Reinforcement Usage on Mica/Polyester Composite Material

Günümüzde artan nüfusla birlikte çevre kirliliği problemleri ön plana çıkmış ve yükselen hayat standardına bağlı değişen tüketim alışkanlıkları, ambalajlı ürün satışlarının artmasına bu da katı atık kompozisyonun farklılaşmasına yol açmıştır. Çoğunlukla su, meşrubat, sıvı yağ, sirke gibi sıvı gıdaların piyasaya sürülmesi amacıyla kullanılan PET ambalajı, geri dönüşüm tesislerinde kırma, yıkama, kurutma vb. bir dizi işlem kademesi sonrasında PET talaşları olarak geri kazanılabilmektedir. Türkiye'de çam ormanları önemli bir yer tutmaktadır. Mevsimsel olarak dökülen kozalak ya toprak üzerinde kalmakta ya da toplanıp yakılmaktadır. Ancak yaşam döngüsü açısından, hammadde kaynaklarının daha verimli kullanması ve zamanla ortaya çıkan yeni ihtiyaçların uygun maliyetlerle karşılanması için oldukça yüksek miktardaki PET ambalaj atıkları ve kozalak atıkları için alternative kullanım alanlarının yaratılması bu kapsamda katma değeri yüksek kompozit malzeme üretimi hem ekonomik bir fırsat hem de çeşitlilik sağlayacaktır

Mika/Polyester Kompozit Malzemeye Organik Takviye Kullanımının Etkisi

The problem of environmental pollution has sprung to the fore with today’s over-population and packaged product sales have risen due to the changing consumption behaviors pursuant to today’s rising living standards, which caused solid waste composition to differentiate. Poly ethylene terephthalate (PET) bottle that is mostly used for the purpose of marketing liquids can be recycled as PET chips after a certain set of procedures. Pine forests have an important place in Turkey. Pine cones that fall seasonally either stay on the ground or are collected and burned. That being said, creating alternative usage areas for a huge amount of PET bottle wastes and pine cone wastes and, in the same scope, production of composite materials with high added value will create both economical opportunities and variety in terms of life cycle, more efficient usage of raw material resources and better sales cost for future needs of people
