In our continuous desire to find suitable methods of recycling waste, expanded polystyrene waste was converted into a paint binder using different solvents (such as gasoline, toluene, xylene, CCl4 and chloroform). Some properties of the binder developed were investigated. Properties like refractive index, density, viscosity, turbidity, melting point, elongation at break and moisture uptake was found to vary from one solvent to another. The binder developed with gasoline, toluene, xylene and chloroform were found to be soluble in water, while the binder developed with CCl4 was found to be insoluble in water. However, only binder developed with gasoline showed appreciable percentage elongation at break and projects waste polystyrene as a potential binder for emulsion paint formulation.
