Abstract

In this research, polyethylene terephthalate bottles (PET) waste was added to styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) to manufacture road bumps, as a technological procedure for recycling this PET waste, in order to maintain a clean and sustainable environment. Polyethylene terephthalate bottles were cut as grooved strips and added to bump SBR batch with various percentages (0 - 100 pphr). Mechanical tests were performed before and after the addition of PET waste including tensile strength, hardness, and resilience. Nanoparticles of carbon black, zinc oxide and sulfur were used, and compare the results with samples with micro particles additions. The result shows that the developed and manufactured bump SBR in this research conforms to the mechanical characteristics of the original bump model especially with nanoparticles additives, and the best results obtained with the nanoparticles additions.
