Wood plastic composites (WPCs) were prepared by extrusion molding with eucalyptus powder, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and silica as additives. The mechanical properties, creep behavior, thermal properties, and cross-section microstructure of the composites were analyzed by universal testing machine, thermogravimetric analyzer, and scanning electron microscope. The results show that with the increase of silica content, the tensile strength, bending strength, and impact strength of the WPCs first increased and then decreased. When the silica content was 3.0%, the tensile strength, bending strength, and impact strength of WPC reached the maximum values of 27.5 MPa, 48.8 MPa, and 4.18 KJ·m-2, respectively, which represented increases of 12.6%, 9.4%, and 20.1%, respectively, compared with those without silica. When the stress was 13.4 MPa, the strain value of 3.0% SiO2-eucalyptus/PVC wood plastic composite was 3.3 times that of 4.46 MPa and 1.7 times that of 8.92 MPa. The pyrolysis process of eucalyptus/PVC WPCs showed a similar trend with different silica content. |
