Introduction
1. What is Wood Plastic products and how to manufacture ?
It is generally agreed that a WPC is a mixture of a thermoplastic, such as polyethylene (commonly used
to make plastic toys and milk containers, plus a lot of other products), with wood flour or fiber, with at
least 40 percent of the composite being wood.
All the current products are formed by extrusion. A hot mixture of plastic and wood particles plus a
variety of additives are squeezed through a die, like toothpaste out of a tube, then through a cooling
section to harden the plastic. The continuous extruded product is cut to appropriate lengths, usually 16
feet. The shape of the die determines the cross-sectional shape of the deck board.
2. The history of WPC products ?
The rapid growth in composite decking(WPC products ) is one of the most exciting stories in recent residential
construction. It went from a market share of 2 percent in 1997 to about 8 percent in 2000 and is projected to have a 20 percent market share in the United States by 2005. And it keep growing 10% at least per year .
3. The advantages of WPC products :
