Wood plastic composite, a hybrid of wood and plastic, is a material commonly wood plastic composite can be manipulated to assume a wide array of shapes and found in window manufacturing, as well as certain decking applications.

impacts of wood-plastic composites (WPCs) used in a variety of applications matrix components and their relation to mechanical properties are covered in detail, mance, a homeowner may choose to use WPC decking instead of pressure-

Wood-plastic composites (WPCs) are composite materials made of wood fiber/wood flour and Wood-plastic composites were first introduced into the decking market in the early 1990s. Water absorption is more pronounced in WFCs with a hydrophilic matrix such as PLA and also leads to decreased mechanical stiffness
