The relationship between microstructure and macroscopic property changes in wood plastic composites

Wood plastic composites (WPCs) have attracted a great deal of interest in recent years. Their mechanical properties are commonly weaker than unfilled polymers, due to the incompatibility between the polymer matrix and the fillers. Consequently, coupling agents have been widely used in WPCs. The aims...
