The addition of maleic anhydride (MA)-modified polypropylene (MAPP) as a compatibilizer increases mechanical and physical properties of wood/ plastic composites (WPCs). It is thought that MA graft ratio (Gr), molecular weight (weightaverage molecular weight [ Mw]), and mixing methods of MAPP affect physical and mechanical properties of WPCs. However, evaluation, especially for mixing order, is not enough. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of Gr and Mw of MAPP and its mixing methods on the mechanical and physical properties of WPCs. Two types of mixing methods were used: mixing the MAPP with the filler using a Henschel mixer before kneading with PP (premixing method) and mixing all of the materials at one time (one-step mixing method). The WPCs made with the premixing method had lower shear viscosity and higher flexural modulus than those made with the one-step mixing method. The particle size, moisture content, and surface morphology of fillers are thought to be more important in determining the shear viscosity of WPCs than the MAPP itself. The highest tensile, impact, and flexural strengths of WPCs were obtained in the WPC with premixing with low-Gr and high-Mw MAPP. It may be due to the effective reaction of the wood flour with MAPP and higher entanglement between the MAPP and PP. These results suggest that the premixing method could improve productivity and mechanical properties of WPCs.
