Wood Plastic Composite (WPC) is a combination of wood flour powder, sawdust, wood pulp, bamboo, and thermoplastic. This environmentally friendly material. Commonly, it is used for making floors, railings, fences, landscaping timbers, cladding and siding, park benches,…
But, the absorption of moisture by wood fibers can lead to swelling, mold, and severe damage to WPCs.
SILIKE Launched SILIMER 5320 lubricant masterbatch, It is a newly developed silicone copolymer with special groups which has excellent compatibility with wood powder, a small addition of it (w/w) can improve the quality of WPC in an efficient manner while reducing production costs and no need secondary treatment.
