Wood-plastic composite (WPC) is a non-recyclable composite material
lumber or timber made of recycled plastic and wood wastes which has
become one of the most dynamic sectors of the plastics industry in
this decade. It is used in numerous applications, such as, outdoor
deck floors, railings, fences, landscaping timbers, park benches,
window and door frames. This book starts with a brief glimpse at
the basic structures and properties of WPCs. Aspects such as
surface treatment, machinery used and testing types of WPCs are
also covered. The following chapters of the book give a view of
foam technology, flame retardant properties and colour retardant
properties of WPCs. The way morphology affects or controls the
physical and mechanical behaviours of the finished materials is
discussed. Finally, the authors give an overview of the
applications of wood-plastic composites in daily life. The book may
serve as a source book for scientists wishing to work in this
field.
