Wood-plastic wallboard, also known as wood-plastic composite board or PVC board/plastic board, is a new type of green environmental protection decorative material. The following is a detailed introduction to wood-plastic wallboard:
- Material composition
Wood-plastic wallboard is mainly made of wood (wood cellulose, plant cellulose) as the base material, and thermoplastic polymer materials (plastics) and processing additives, etc., after being mixed evenly, and then heated and extruded by mold equipment. This material combines the properties and characteristics of wood and plastic, and becomes a new composite material that can replace wood and plastic.
Ii. Characteristics
Waterproof and moisture-proof: Wood-plastic wallboard has excellent waterproof performance, which fundamentally solves the problem that wood products are easy to rot and expand and deform after absorbing moisture, so it can be used in the environment where traditional wood products cannot be applied.
Insect-proof and termite-proof: Wood-plastic wallboard can effectively eliminate insect harassment and extend service life.
Variety of colors: Wood-plastic wallboard provides a variety of color options to meet different decorative needs.
Strong plasticity: Wood-plastic wallboard is easy to achieve personalized modeling and fully show personality style.
High environmental protection: Wood-plastic wallboard is pollution-free, pollution-free, and can be recycled, greatly saving the use of wood, in line with the national policy of sustainable development.
High fire resistance: Wood-plastic wallboard can effectively flame retardant, high fire rating, self-extinguishing in case of fire, does not produce toxic gases.
Easy processing: Wood-plastic wallboard has good machinability, can nail, drill, grind, saw, planing, painting.
Easy installation: WPC wall panel construction is convenient, does not need complicated construction technology, save installation time and cost.
Easy maintenance: Wood-plastic wallboard is not easy to crack, expand, deformation, no maintenance and maintenance, easy to clean, save later maintenance and maintenance costs.
Sound absorption: Wood-plastic wallboard has good sound absorption effect and energy saving, so that indoor energy saving up to more than 30%.
Iii. Use
WPC wallboard is widely used in the field of architectural decoration and decoration because of its unique performance and advantages:
Interior wall decoration: brings natural texture and warm atmosphere to the room.
Exterior decoration: provides weather resistance and durability while presenting the appearance of natural wood.
Garden fences and railings: suitable for outdoor environments due to their anti-corrosion, water and moth-resistant properties.
Commercial space decoration: provide unique decorative effects for shops, restaurants, offices, etc.
Leisure places: such as hotels, resorts, amusement parks, etc., can be used for indoor and outdoor decoration and decoration.
Exhibition display: Used for the construction of exhibitions and displays to create an attractive environment and can be customized according to the exhibition theme.
Public facilities: such as schools, hospitals, libraries and other places of wall decoration.
Pool border: Because of its water resistance, it can be used for decoration around the pool.
Outdoor outdoor areas: such as balconies, terraces, etc., to add a natural atmosphere to the outdoor space.
- Production process
The production process of WPC mainly includes raw material treatment, mixed extrusion, cooling curing and finished product cutting:
Raw material treatment: crushing and screening of wood flour to ensure the consistency of particle size; Polyethylene is melted for mixing with wood flour.
Mixed extrusion: the fused polyethylene and wood powder are mixed and extruded to form a uniform mixture.
Molding cooling: The mixture is extruded to the desired shape and size through a mold, and then cooled and cured.
Finished cutting: According to the need, the cured wood-plastic wallboard is cut to get the required size and length.
In summary, WPC as a new type of green environmental protection decorative materials, because of its excellent performance and wide application prospects, in the market has received more and more attention and recognition.
