Enhanced wood plastic composites
2013In the study, two wood fibre types, bleached softwood kraft pulp (BSKP) and thermomechanical pulp (TMP) with fibre lengths of 2.28 and 1.40 mm, respectively, were melt processed with poly(lactic acid) (PLA) using a twin-screw extruder to fibre content of 30 wt-% and injection moulded.

Weathering of High-Density Polyethylene-Wood Plastic Composites
Journal of Wood Chemistry and Technology, 2013Due to widespread use of wood-plastic composites, high density polyethylene-wood flour composites (HDPE/WF) were studied in order to determine their stability in different application conditions. UV degradation and periodic absorption/desorption of moisture cause damaging changes to material during WPCs exterior application so it is needed to ensure ...
