Frontiers | Mechanical properties of PVC-based wood–plastic
Compared with traditional wooden building materials, polyvinyl chloride (PVC)-based wood–plastic composites have advantages of good weather resistance, easy processing capability, energy conservation, and environmental protection and have been popular and widely used in the field of civil construction and garden engineering in recent years. Due to the difference in the thermal expansion

Composite preparation The WF and PVC were dried for 12 h at 80 °C before composite fabrication. A constant ratio of PVC: WF: plasticizers: calcium stearate (49:32:16:3 in weight) was maintained in each formulation.
What are Wood-Plastic Composites (WPCs)? - The Constructor
Wood-plastic composite is manufactured by thoroughly mixing ground wood particles and heated thermoplastic resin. Finally, the whole mixture is extruded into the desired shape. The commonly used thermoplastic resins are polystyrene (PS), polylactic acid (PLA) and polypropylene (PP).
Using PVC-based wood-plastic composites in window frames
The target of this Project is to provide basic input in the the current standardization work of CEN TC 249 WG 13 "Wood-Plastics Composites" in order to transfer the existing material base norm EN
