Polyester is now being used for bottles. ICI, the chemicals and plastics company, believes that it is now beginning to break the grip of glass on the bottle business and thus take advantage of this huge market.
All the plastics manufacturers have been experiencing hard times as their traditional products have been doing badly world-wide for the last few years. Between 1982 and 1984 the Plastics Division of ICI had lost a hundred and twenty million dollars, and they felt that the most hopeful new market was in packaging, bottles and cans.
Since 1982 it has opened three new factories’ producing “Melinar” , the raw material from which high quality polyester bottles are made.
The polyester bottle was born in the 1970s, when soft drinks companies : like Coca Cola started selling their drinks in grant two-litre containers. Because of the build-up of the pressure of gas in these large containers, glass was unsuitable. Nor was PVC, the plastic which had been used for bottles since the 1960s, suitable for drinks with gas in them. A new plastic had to be made.
Glass is still cheaper for the smaller bottles, and will continue to be so unless oil and plastic become much cheaper, but plastic does well for the larger sizes.
Polyester bottles are virtually unbreakable. The manufacturers claim they are also lighter, less noisy when being handled, and can be re-used. Shopkeepers and other business people are unlikely to object to a change from glass to polyester, since these bottles mean few breakages, which are costly and time-consuming.The public, though, have been more difficult to persuade. ICI’s commercial department is developing different bottles with interesting shapes, to try and make them visually more attractive to the public.
The next step could be to develop a plastic which could replace tins for food. The problem here is the high temperatures necessary for cooking the food in the container.

THAM KHẢO
From the point of view of recycling, paper has two advantages over minerals and 0- (n) oil. In that firstly it comes from a resource which is 1- (adj) sustainable and secondly it is less threatening to our environment when we throw it away because it is 2- (adj) biodegradable. Although Australia’s record in the re-use of waste paper is good, it is still necessary to use a combination of recycled fibre and 3- (n) virgin fibre to make new paper. The paper industry has contributed positively and people have also been encouraged by 4- (n) government to collect their waste on a regular basis. One major difficulty is the removal of ink from used paper but 5- (n) advances are being made in this area. However, we need to learn to accept paper which is generally of a lower 6- (n) quality than before and to sort our waste paper by removing 7- (n) contaminants before discarding it for collection.

Our oceans are becoming extremely polluted. Most of this pollution comes from the land, which means it comes from people. Firstly, there is raw sewage, which is pumped directly into the sea. Many countries, both developed and developing, are guilty of doing this. Secondly, ships drop about 6 million tons of garbage into the sea each year. Thirdly, there are oil spills from ships. A ship has an accident and oil leaks from the vessel. This not only pollutes the water, but it also kills marine life. Next, there are waste materials from factories. Without proper regulations, factory owners let the waste run directly into the rivers, which then leads to the sea. And finally, oil is washed from land. This can be the result of carelessness or a deliberate dumping of waste.
Serious environmental problems are being (1) ………… caused……… by large (2) ………… amounts……… of disposable plastic products. Therefore, people are finding (3) …………… creative…… ways to reuse and (4) …………… recycle…… plastic. The EcoARK is a(n) (5) ………… building……… made with bottle-shaped bricks. ese bricks were made from (6) ………300………… tons of plastic waste. Another example is the world’s (7) ………… longest……… plastic bridge, built with 50 tons of plastic waste. It is strong and doesn’t require much work to maintain. Finally, the Plastiki is a sailboat built from 12,000 plastic bottles. It sailed (8) …………… across…… the Pacific Ocean to make people (9) ……… aware ………… of (10) ………… pollution ……… in the ocean. Before you throw away something made of plastic, think of a creative way to reuse or recycle it.
