TITLE:

SUMMARY:

The use of post-consumption and industrial waste is a possibility that has been evaluated, as a way of minimizing the impacts caused by the large amount of waste generated today. Post-consumer polymeric waste and waste from wood processing are two wastes that generate environmental concern due to their complicated disposal, generating an environmental liability. The use of these wastes in the production of plastic wood becomes an alternative, contributing to the concept of circular economy. This work aims to produce and evaluate the mechanical properties, through analysis of traction, impact, water absorption, fluidity and Scanning Electron Microscopy, of plastic wood produced with percentages of 10%, 20%, 30% wood waste, polymeric waste and use of impact modifier additives. The analyzes carried out demonstrated that the incorporation of wood waste as reinforcement in the production of wood plastic composites significantly influences the performance of the material produced. When compared to virgin polypropylene, composites containing 30% sawdust showed better performance in terms of mechanical resistance. This performance trend continued when recycled polypropylene was used in the presence of a compatibilizing agent and an impact modifier.
