木粉与废旧塑料复合材料的开发与研究不但可以提供充分利用自然资源的机会,而且也可以减轻由于废旧塑料而引起的环境污染,因此,这种塑木复合材料是一种节约能源、保护环境的绿色环保材料。其应用范围也很广,主要应用在建材、汽车工业、货物的包装运输、装饰材料及日常生活用具等方面,有广阔的发展前景。木粉作为塑料的一种有机填料,具有许多其他的无机填料所无法比拟的优良性能:来源广泛、价格低廉、密度低、绝缘性好、对加工设备磨损小。但它并没有像无机填料那样得到广泛应用,原因主要有与基体树脂的相容性差、在熔融的热塑性塑料中分散效果差、流动性差、挤出成型加工困难等。
The development and research of wood powder and waste plastics can not only provide the opportunity to make full use of natural resources, but also reduce the environmental pollution caused by waste plastics. Therefore, this kind of wood composite material is a green and environmental protection material to save energy and protect the environment. Its application is also widely used in building materials, automobile industry, packaging and transportation of goods, decoration materials and daily life appliances, which have broad prospects for development. As an organic filler of plastic, wood powder has many excellent properties which are incomparable to many other inorganic fillers: wide source, low price, low density, good insulation, and small wear to processing equipment. But it has not been widely used as inorganic filler, because of its poor compatibility with matrix resin, poor dispersing effect in molten thermoplastic, poor fluidity, and difficult extrusion processing.
