Properties of products obtained from wood polymer composites (WPC) based on thermoplastic polymers generally depend on a properties of polymer matrix, a kind and content of filler as well as on processing conditions. In presented work, evaluation attempt  of processing temperature influence on mechanical properties of poly(vinyl chloride) PVC and PVC/wood flour composites obtained both by injection molding and extrusion method. Moreover, wood filler influence on processing conditions has been determined.

Keywords: WPC, PVC, extrusion, injection molding, mechanical properties, processing properties
