TITLE : DETERMINATION OF WEAR RESISTANCE OF NEEM, MANGO AND CORK WOOD POLYACRYLONITRILE COMPOSITES  
ABSTRACT :

Wood has long been used by the plastics industry as in expensive filler to increase strength and stiffness of the thermo plastic or to reduce raw materials cost. Wood Polymer composites consist primarily of wood and thermoplastic polymers. The commercial successes of these materials have been primarily by the promise of improved moisture performance, recycled and waste material utilization and efficiency in product and process design. Wood polyacrylonitrile composite (WPC) from neem,mango and cork wood was synthesized. The process was carried out through benzoyl peroxide (0.05 mol/l) catalyzed impregnation polymerization of acrylonitrile, 4 mol/l, 6 mol/l into neem wood cork wood and mango wood in benzene medium at 75 + -1°C. The properties of WPCs over untreated woods were evaluated in terms of wear resistance test of wood was improved with impregnation of polyacrylonitrile. Impregnation of polyacyrlonitrile (PAN) into neem, mango and cork woods were was confirmed through scanning electron microscope.

Key words: benzoyl peroxide, Polyacronitrile, impregnation, wear resistance, composite materials.
