How does the addition of rubber particles to WPC improve impact resistance in outdoor planters?
The addition of rubber particles to Wood-Plastic Composite (WPC) significantly improves the impact resistance of outdoor planters. Rubber particles act as energy absorbers, dispersing stress and reducing crack propagation when the material is subjected to sudden forces, such as drops or impacts. This modification enhances the durability of WPC planters, making them more resistant to damage from harsh weather conditions or accidental impacts. Additionally, the rubber particles improve flexibility, preventing brittle fractures and extending the lifespan of the planters. This innovation makes WPC planters a more reliable choice for outdoor use, combining sustainability with superior performance.
