Since being discovered by John Wesley Hyatt, an American researcher, in 1968, plastic has become the prima donna for the industrial world, with total production in the world of + 100 million tons per year. Plastic development is very rapid, because its ease and specialty can replace other materials such as metal and wood in helping human life. Plastics that are widely used are polyethylene (wrapping materials, plastic bags, children’s toys, bottles), teflon (metal substitutes, cookware coatings), polyvinylchoride (for pipes, household appliances, paint, LPs), polytrirena (electrical insulator material, food wrapper, styrofoam, children’s toys), and others. The rapid development of the synthetic polymer industry has spoiled our lives because the practicality and comfort of the products produced are characterized by a practical and comfortable life.
