What is the impact of the ratio of PE and wood powder in WPC products?

Wood Plastic Composites (WPCs) have gained widespread popularity across industries like construction, automotive, and consumer goods due to their blend of wood’s natural aesthetic and the durability of plastic. The key components of WPCs, polyethylene (PE) and wood powder, directly influence the material’s properties. However, beyond performance, the ratio of PE to wood powder also has a significant impact on the cost structure of the final product. Understanding how to balance these two elements is crucial not only for achieving the desired mechanical properties but also for controlling the manufacturing cost of WPC products. This article explores the impact of the PE and wood powder ratio on WPC performance and provides a detailed cost analysis.
