| Abstract | Everyday billions of dollars are wasted to hurricanes, floods, and other types of devastating nature storms that cause oxidation, rot, and degradation of precious building materials. This experiment was designed to stop the waste of these valuable resources. It was done by finding which type of plastic (PVDC, PET, and LDPE) would be the most water resistant, and protect the wood from mold or rotting. |
