Abstrakt: Recycling of Printed Circuit Boards (PCB) has been carried out by powdering it into granular size of less than 10 microns. The properties of PCB reveal that it possesses density of 1.3 g/cm3 and Tensile Strength of 310 MPa which is comparatively high when compared to the Polycarbonate material which is normally used in the fabrication of Riot shield. The PCB material was subjected to SEM and EDAX analysis for determining their structure, porosity and material composition. Riot shield fabricated from PCB reduces the environmental effects of E-waste PCBs by the recycling technique, improves the material strength and reduces the weight and cost to a larger extent.
