For that purpose, the following LDPE/PLA/wood flour composites were considered: 20/80/0, 2080/5, 20/80/10, 20/80/20, 20/80/30, 20/80/40). The evolution of elongation at break, strength at break and Young's modulus was followed as a function of the wood flour concentration. The results showed that the properties of the considered composites depend on the level of wood flour.enBlendingElastic moduliLow density polyethylenesReinforced plasticsBiodegradable thermoplasticsElongation at breakLow density polyethylene(LDPE)Mechanical characterizationsPLAPoly lactic acidWood flourYoung's ModulusWood productsMixingPolyethyleneArticle
