Preparation and properties improvement of woodflour-polymer composites made from polypropylene and wood industries wastes
Abstract
Wood is not only a renewable and a biodegradable resource, but also predominant source of lignocellulosic materials most extensively used in the decoration and in the furniture industries. The insatiable world demand for good quality timber has led to destructive logging of tropical hardwood forest in many developing countries and gave rise serious global concern. As rain forest supplies shrink, while development accelerates, it is expected to lead to a sharp rise in the cost of natural timber products in the near future.
