LIGHT STABILIZERS ADDED TO THE SHELL OF CO-EXTRUDED WOOD/HIGH-DENSITY POLYETHYLENE COMPOSITES TO IMPROVE MECHANICAL AND ANTI-UV AGEING PROPERTIES

Light stabilizers added to the shell of co-extruded wood/high-density polyethylene composites to improve mechanical and anti-UV ageing properties

Weathering of wood--plastic composites (WPCs) leads to discoloration and cracks, which greatly limits their outdoor application.In this study, light stabilizers (including UV-327, HS-944 and Hockey Protective - Helmet - Visors nano-SiO2) were added to the shell of a co-extruded high-density polyethylene-based WPC to improve its anti-ultraviolet (UV
