Wood plastic composite is based on high density polyethylene and wood fiber, which determines that it has some characteristics of plastic and wood.
1) Good processing performance
Wood plastic composite materials contain plastics and fibers. Therefore, they have similar processing properties to wood. They can be sawed, nailed and planed. They can be completed with woodworking tools, and the nail holding force is obviously superior to other synthetic materials. The mechanical properties are better than wood materials. The nail holding force is generally 3 times that of wood and 5 times that of particleboard.
2) Good strength performance
Wood plastic composites contain plastics, so they have good elastic modulus. In addition, because it contains fibers and is fully mixed with plastics, it has the same physical and mechanical properties as hardwood, such as compression resistance and bending resistance, and its durability is obviously better than that of ordinary wood materials. The surface hardness is high, generally 2-5 times that of wood.
3) Water and corrosion resistance, long service life
Compared with wood, wood plastic materials and their products are resistant to strong acid and alkali, water and corrosion, and do not reproduce bacteria. They are not easy to be eaten by insects and do not grow fungi. Long service life, up to more than 50 years.
4) Excellent adjustable performance
Through additives, plastics can undergo changes such as polymerization, foaming, curing and modification, so as to change the density, strength and other characteristics of wood plastic materials, and also meet the special requirements of anti-aging, anti-static and flame retardant.
5) It has UV light stability and good coloring property.
6) Its biggest advantage is to turn waste into treasure, and 100% recycling and reproduction. It can be decomposed and will not cause "white pollution". It is a real green environmental protection product.
7) Wide source of raw materials
The plastic raw materials for the production of wood plastic composite materials are mainly high-density polyethylene or polypropylene. The wood fibers can be wood powder, rice bran or wood fiber. In addition, a small amount of additives and other processing aids are required.
8) It can be made into any shape and size as required.
