Flow Behavior of HDPE-Fine Wood Particles Composites 

 -  Composite Materials Journal of ThermoPlastic, 20(5), p.439-451, 2007 .
<br/><br/> This study presents an experimental investigation on the flow behavior of the composites of high density polyethylene (HDPE)and very fine wood particles (smaller than 50 mm). Knowledge of the flow behavior can give insight into the processability of these composites especially in injection molding process. Complex modulus, melt flow index (MFI), and flow length are measured for composites containing 40-70wt
