This investigation was focused on evaluating the utilization of Leather-waste, i.e., “Leather Shavings”, to develop “Poly(ethylene-vinyl-acetate)” (EVA) based “polymer matrix composites”. Composites with highest ratio 1:1 were developed using a rolling-mill, which then subjected hot-press molding for value-added applications, notably in “floor-covering”, “structural”, “footwear”, and “transport...
