| Abstract | In this paper investigates the environment impact for recycle polypropylene which reinforced with natural wood fiber by extrusion. The purpose of this work was to reduce the environmental impact for the new products by adding different percentages as 5% to 60% wt of natural Wood and Glass Fibers to recycle polypropylene. This provides a cradle to cradle Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) study of whole process of extruding the recycle polypropylene with natural wood fiber to obtain pellets. The result showed improvement of the environmental impact throughout the increasing the wood fiber. |
