Were evaluated Wood plastic composite with particles of Pinus caribaea made by extrusion molding. The physical and mechanical properties of the boards were improved by increasing the density. Mixtures of different thermoplastics between the dosages of raw material allows to obtain boards with better mechanical properties. The study allows to obtain the formulations with better dimensional stability.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
