Hybrid composite material consists rubber matrix reinforced by polymer waste stripes is introduced in this study. Hardness and adhesion of Acry-lonitrile Butadiene Rubber-Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) waste com-posite have been investigated. The study included the relationship between these properties and the percentage of PET¡¯sadditives (0 - 100 pphr) as a reinforcement material. The obtained results show that the rubber reinforced by PET waste is refining the Hybrid composite properties from engineering and economic aspect. With only 80 pphr of PET waste additives, the rubber hardness improved by 28% and its adhesion improved by 18%.
