WOOD PLASTIC COMPOSITES MADE FROM CORN HUSK FIBER AND RECYCLED POLYSTYRENE FOAM

This research is a preliminary study on the preparation of wood plastic composites (WPC) from corn husk fiber (CHF) and recycled polystyrene foam (rPS). The effects of fiber content and alkaline treatment on tensile, thermal, water absorption and morphological properties of the composites were inves...
