Abstract:
Polylactide (PLA)-based wood plastic composites (WPCs) were manufactured to investigate the effects of linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) on the resulting composites, which were fabricated through extrusion blending followed by injection molding. The static and dynamic mechanical, and thermal properties of the PLA-based WPCs were tested and the morphologies of the cryofractured surface were observed. The impact toughness and interface adhesion of the PLA-based WPCs toughened with LLDPE were significantly improved, compared with their unmodified counterparts. LLDPE had no significant effect on the thermal stability of the PLA-based WPCs and could be an advisable toughening agent for the PLA-based WPCs.
