The thirst for energy is ever increasing in this fast moving world. The polymer materials such as LDPE, LLDPE, MDPE and HDPE type of polyethylene materials become an indispensable part of our life. These waste polyethylene materials has become a big environmental problem today. The conversion of the waste polyethylene materials into useful hydrocarbon products is one of the key challenge world is facing today. The polymers having polyolefin are very useful materials with different applications, but are reluctant to degradation or deterioration. The thermal pyrolytic conversion of the waste polyethylene mix and the extraction of different useful hydrocarbon components were observed to be one of the key areas of study. The paper emphasizes on the estimation of the different type of the components observed in the naphtha like component recovered from such degradation process. The types of the paraffinic, iso-paraffinic, olefinic, naphthenic and aromatic components observed were studied. The reaction mechanism followed in the conversion process and the stability of the components in the liquid phase was observed. The conversions of the C40+ components to the lighter components ranging from C1 to C5 and C6 to C15 components by the chromatographic and infra red spectroscopic techniques were investigated.
