Abstract: CREENCIA, PATRICIA S. and BAUTISTA, KYSCES CAMILLE B. Production of Glue Sticks from Used Plastic Materials. Research study. (General Science Curriculum). Science High School, College of Education, Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite, March 2010. Adviser: Prof. Dulce L. Ramos This experimental study was conducted to produce glue sticks from used plastic materials. It specifically aimed to determine the physical/sensory properties of glue sticks from used plastic materials; to determine the percentage yield of glue sticks produced from used plastic materials; to determine the most acceptable to consumers in terms of physical or sensory properties among the produced glue sticks; and to determine the acceptability of the produced glue sticks from used plastic materials when compared to commercial glue sticks. The experiment was arranged in Completely Randomized Design using six treatments and control, each replicated three times. Analysis of Variance was used to compare the physical/sensory properties and acceptability of produced glue sticks. DMRT was employed to compare significant results. Results showed that commercial glue stick (TO) ranked first in all sensory and physical properties as rated by the evaluators. In terms of odor and transparency, only the commercial glue stick was found acceptable. All of the treatments were acceptable in texture. Excluding commercial glue stick, glue sticks produced from 150 grams of cut plastic bottles and 1 liter of kerosene (T6) ranked highest in terms of smoothness, stickiness on wood, rubber, metal, paper, ceramics, and glass. The lowest rating in terms of physical/sensory properties was recorded on glue sticks made from 100 grams of cut plastic cups and 1 liter of kerosene (T1). Highest yield of 93-74 % was recorded on T2 or glue sticks produced from 125 grams of cut plastic cups and 1 liter of kerosene while lowest yield of 83% was noted in T5 or glue sticks produced from 125 grams of cut plastic bottles and 1 liter of kerosene. In terms of acceptability, glue sticks made from 150 grams of cut plastic bottles and 1 liter of kerosene (T6) and glue sticks produced from 150 grams of cut plastic cups and 1 liter of kerosene (T3) were the most acceptable as rated by evaluators. In contrast, glue sticks produced from 100 grams of cut plastic cups and 1 liter of kerosene (Ti) and glue sticks made from 100 grams of cut plastic bottles and 1 liter of kerosene (T4) were "not acceptable".
