| description | In the present review, the consideration has paid on various possible applications of post-consumer polyvinyl chloride flex banners (vinyl flex banners), focusing on their process chemistry, process parameters, and methodologies. The vinyl flex banners are mainly composed of calcium carbonate, polyvinyl chloride resin, polyester fabric, plasticisers and additives. From the intensive literature search, it is observed that post-consumer vinyl flex banner (PCVFB) materials have the potential to use in various fields. The PCVFB materials can be reused as received for various possible applications, such as water-proof roof covers, vehicle covers, food grain covers, tarpaulins, sitting mats, bags, etc. Critically, they can be recycled by using suitable preparation process for different applications, such as footwear, geotextiles, canal linings, ropes, and pipes. Further, the PCVFB material can be used as one of the ingredients for concrete materials. To the finest of our information, it can be further suggested that there is a scope to prepare low-cost wood-plastic composites (WPC), and adhesive/glue material from PCVFB for diverse applications. The use of PCVFB for various possible applications can reduce the accumulation of solid waste and can provide a cleaner and greener environment. |
