For the development of positive approach towards green in our day to day life usage of recycled plastic material with stonedust is appreciable. The present investigation work focus impact of adding stonedust in RP using stearic acid as a binding material and its mechanical behaviour. Proposed work carried out to create new polymer composite for designing new reliable products. Total 16 test samples were prepared for analysis using different proportions of Recycled Polymer/ stonedust. Tensile and density property investigation were carried out with UTM and densitometer using dog-bone shaped test samples. These properties were important to determine the strength of proposed material. It is observed that with the increase in % of stonedust and stearic acid the tensile strength and density increases but not remarkable as recycled polymer consists of mixture of polyolefins. Experimental analysis were observed change in tensile strength highly affected by change in stone-dust particle size and % of binding material.
