Plastics consumption has been increased throughout the world incredibly in recent decades, the rapid depletion of natural resources and generating more and more plastic wastes throughout the world, it is necessary to conserve the natural resources and protect the environment. Recycling is the best treatment for plastic waste and also reduced the consumption of oil for producing new virgin plastic. In many applications, plastic polymer resins i.e. polypropylene (PP), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and High density polyethylene (HDPE) are not the ideal material for the job, and they don't possess the dimensional stability required, but by the adding mineral fillers, they can increase the dimensional stability and stiffness of the materials. The present purpose of the study is the assessment of the advantage and disadvantage of mineral fillers (i.e. Talc, Kaolin, Clay and Calcium Carbonate). By observing the results precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) is safety mineral fillers and also to enhance the mechanical properties of recycling plastics.
