ABSTRACT The present review elaborates about the complexity being associated with the intensification of Rotational Molding process. It is a technique used in the manufacturing of hollow stress-free plastic products. In recent years, as rotational molding process has gained popularity in various critical applications, a detailed study on this technique needs to be analyzed deliberately. For this reason, an extensive review of rotational molding process has been effectuated in this paper, which is mainly categorized into four different sections, namely, materials, additives, processibility and process parameters. The paper analyses exhaustively the dynamic quality of processibility, parametric analysis and industrial applications of roto-molded product documented by different researchers. First two section focuses mainly on mixing distinguished materials and additives with the base resin in order to achieve optimal mechanical properties in a roto-molded product. Consecutively, third section explains the fusion of powder and its characterization in terms of roto moldability. The last part is a detailed analysis of parametric study affecting rotational molding process. It can be concluded from the literature review that a suitable selection of base resin, additives, processibility analysis and parameter characterization can execute a vital role to augment advancements in rotational molding process.
