Accelerated Weathering Of Rubberwood Reinforced Recycled Polypropylene Composites

The purpose of this paper is to study the effects of water immersion-freeze-thaw treatment on the physical properties, flexural strength (FS) and morphology of wood-polypropylene composites. The behaviour of wood plastic composite is difficult to predict due to the complexity in the structure of the...
