SUMMARY:

The use of post-consumer and industrial waste is a possibility that has been evaluated as a way to minimize the impacts caused by the large amount of waste generated today. Post-consumer polymeric waste and wood processing waste are two wastes that generate environmental concerns because their disposal is complicated, 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 a WPC from a polymeric dispersion and sawdust in concentrations of 10, 20 and 30% sawdust. The samples were evaluated for their mechanical properties and microstructure, through tensile, impact, fluidity and Scanning Electron Microscopy analyses. The results demonstrated that the use of polymeric waste to obtain a WPC must be carefully tested, since the properties of the compound will be influenced by the presence of contamination from post-consumer waste. The incorporation of wood waste as reinforcement in the production of wood-plastic composites significantly influences the performance of the material produced. The addition of a compatibilizing agent helps to maintain the properties of the uniform compound. When improvements in the resilience of the material are desired, the addition of an impact modifying agent is necessary. In this work, the impact modifying agent positively influenced the compatibility of the matrix with the reinforcement.
