Abstract
In this study, it is aimed to produce wood plastic composite material with eggshell additives and to investigate the mechanical properties of these materials. Mechanical properties such as tensile strength and modulus of elasticity, elongation at break, flexural strength and modulus of elasticity and impact resistance of new materials produced by adding eggshell to wood plastic composite at different rates were investigated. It was determined that tensile strength values gradually decreased due to the increase in the amount of eggshell in the composites produced. The modulus of elasticity of the composite material in tensile strength increases with the increase in the amount of eggshell in the mixture. With the increase of the eggshell ratio used, the elongation values of the plastic composite at break are reduced. The eggshell material used in wood plastic composite reduces the bending strength of the material. The eggshell reduces the modulus of elasticity of the composite material in bending. The eggshell composite material did not cause a significant change in impact resistance.
