Thermal expansion behavior of co-extruded wood-plastic composites with glass-fiber reinforced shells
Coextruded wood-plastic composites (WPCs) with glass-fiber (GF) filled shells were manufactured, and their thermal expansion behavior was studied. A three-dimensional finite element model (FEM) considering differential properties of both shell and core layers was developed to predict the linear coef...
