Eco-friendly approach and potential biodegradable polymer matrix for WPC composite materials in outdoor application [PDF]
Blends based on high density polyethylene (HDPE) and poly(lactic) acid (PLA) with different ratios of both polymers were produced: a blend with equal amounts of HDPE and PLA, hence 50 wt.% each, proved to be a useful compromise, allowing a high amount of

Dual morphology (fibres and particles) cellulosic filler for WPC materials [PDF]
Wood-plastic composites (WPC) were fabricated by using a polyethylene (PE) matrix and filling it with wood flour in the amount of 30 wt.%, and compared with the same composites with further amount of 10 wt.% of cellulosic recycled fibres added.
