Abstract

ABSTRACT
Effect of the percentages of alkaline on the properties of wood plastic composite
Was studied. The percentages used were 10%, 15%, and 25%. The size of fiber
affected the bonding properties during the wood plastic composite process. The
objectives were to investigate the mechanical and physical properties of wood
plastic composites affected by percentages of alkaline. In this project, soda
pulping was used. Bending test, tensile test, and thickness swelling test were
used to determine the mechanical properties of wood plastic composite made
from fiber from Kenaf and plastic pallets was used as the binder. The results
obtained shows that the lesser the viscosity, more space can be covered up by
fiber thus influenced the properties of wood plastic composites. Higher alkaline
percentage caused more water been absorbed. The wood plastic composites
properties used 10% and 15% alkaline percentages is were better than 25%
alkaline percentages.
