Mechanical Properties and Morphology of Wood Plastic Composites Produced with Thermally Treated Beech Wood
The effect of thermal-treatment severity of wood on the mechanical and morphological properties of wood plastic composites (WPCs) was investigated. Wood chips were first heat treated at 120, 150, or 180 ºC for 30 or 120 min under saturated steam in a digester. The composites were composed of thermal...
