## Abstract Woodβplastic composites are being increasingly examined for nonstructural or semistructural building applications. As outdoor applications become more widespread, durability becomes an issue. Ultraviolet exposure can lead to photodegradation, which results in a change in appearance and/
## Abstract Summary: While many experiments have been performed to examine the effects of administering CO~2~ as a blowing agent in the foaming process, very few studies have investigated the use of N~2~ for this purpose. In this study, foaming experiments were conducted in extrusion using HDPE as
## Abstract Although woodβplastic composites have become more accepted and used in recent years and are promoted as lowβmaintenance, highβdurability building products, they do experience a color change and a loss in mechanical properties with accelerated weathering. In this study, we attempted to c
