Abstract
Parkesin, the first thermoplastic ever created, was discovered and patented by Alexander Parkes in 1856. Plastic bags started to become extensively used in the US in 1966 as a result of his invention's ongoing growth. As an alternative to paper containers, the grocery sector adopted plastic shopping bags in 1977. Plastic bags are useful carriers or media for transporting and loading a lot of luggage. This condition causes issues because there are so many plastic bags in daily life, especially black plastic bags because they have more concentrated chemical residues and dyes than colored plastic bags.In order to create new forms of the plastic material, experimental and exploratory methods were applied to black plastic bags as part of the project-based learning approach. The end product is a plastic bag with particular qualities that may be mixed with imitation leather and taffeta fabric to create a semi-couture collection. It is slightly stiff but flexible like a cloth.
