Production of black and brown polish

Thesis Overview

<p> </p><p><strong>INTRODUCTION</strong></p><p>The emergence of polish technology in engineering is apparent offshoot of complexities resulting from the induction of substances that produce desired gloss and provides a protective coating for the surface of the materials, changing it to a dry adherent film. Therefore, polish is a substances usually wax based, which when applied to a sequence was based, which applied to sequence protects, makes it smooth and shiny.<br>It has been discovered that shoe polish industries in Nigeria are at minimum even though the polish industry is economically very important due to its widespread usage. Shoe polish industry as a surface coaling provider in a very important venture. The manufacture of surface coaling materials of which shoes polish is a part, has been estimated with swales of more than 10,000 million yearly. This in essence means that its usage is wide spread and in teams of employment, gives a lot of opportunities. The economic consequences as highlighted above have4 in turn spu7rred many into a continuous struggle for a good quality product.<br>Therefore, in a bid to reduce the degree of unemployment by establishing small scale industries, this research project is embark upon.<br><strong>AIMS AND OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT</strong><br>The aim and objective of this project among other things include;<br>1 To produce shoe polish which will suit the weather of this country.<br>2 Produce polish of high quality at minimum cost5<br>3 To conserve foreign exchange and help solve the problem of balance of payment resulting from, the importation of polishes to offset the unnecessary.<br>4 To help complement the efforts of existing factories toward meeting the rising demand of product.<br>5 To create employment opportunities by establishing polish industry.<br>6 To reduce the depending on government for emplyment by having individual investment and becoming self reliant<br>THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY<br>Considering the fact that there are few or practically no functional polish industry in the country, and the imported polish most atimes do not meet up with the local weather conditions, this research project will help to find solution to these problems. And at the same time offer local alternatives to these imported products. It will equally be an avenue for finding means of increasing our domestic national product.<br>Importantly, exploiting the benefit offered by this research work will help in improving the qualities of polishes produced. This will help in making the polish industry a viable venture, whose product could be exported thereby serving as a foreign exchange earner for the country.<br><strong>SCOPE OF THE PROJECT</strong><br>The research project covers feasibility study, scouting and acquisition of the necessary raw materials required for the production, formulations research and the production of the polish samples. Other areas are, analytical test of product qualities as compared with some commercial brands, evaluation of the project, discussion, conclusion and recommendations.</p> <br><p></p>
