Wood plastic composites (WPCs) are a combination of wood and plastic that offer a range of benefits over traditional wood products. WPCs are more durable, require less maintenance, and are more cost effective than traditional wood products. However, to maximize the benefits of WPCs, it is important to use processing aids during the manufacturing process.
One of the most common processing aids used in WPC production is a lubricant. Lubricants help reduce friction between the wood and plastic components, allowing for a smoother and more efficient production process. Additionally, lubricants can help reduce the amount of heat generated during the production process, which can help reduce the risk of warping or cracking of the finished product. By utilizing processing aids during the production process, manufacturers can ensure that they are getting the most out of their WPCs.

 

SILIKE Processing lubricants enhance the Performance of Wood Plastic Composites!

WPC30

SILIKE SILIMER products combine special groups with polysiloxane. By utilizing these processing aids during the production process, manufacturers can ensure that they are getting the most out of their WPCs. Moreover, compared to organic additives like stearates or PE waxes, throughput can be increased. Suitable for HDPE, PP, and other wood-plastic composites.

Benefits:
1. Improve processing, reduce extruder torque
2. Reduce internal and external friction
3. Maintain good mechanical properties
4. High scratch/impact resistance
5. Good hydrophobic properties,
6. Increased moisture resistance
7. Stain resistance
8. Enhanced sustainability
