Results were shown as follows: 1) Wood-PVC composite showed worse thermal stability on time to ignition (TTI) and mean heat release rate (MHRR), but better performance on heat release rate (HRR) and mean efficient heat of combustion (MEHC); wood-PP composite had better thermal stability properties, but was worse on other fire performance; 2) Compared with wood-PVC composite, wood-PP composite showed excellent thermal stability, but behaved dangerous as a whole; 3) Coupling agent PAPI changed fire performance of wood-PP composite and showed a longer TTI, lower EHC but higher HRR. It can be concluded that flame resistance treatment should be considered if wood-plastic composites are used as decorated materials.展开更多
