Wood-polymer composites (WPC) of rubberwood (Hevea brasiliensis), were prepared by impregnating the wood with methyl methacrylate (MMA), and the combinations of MMA and diallyl phthalate (MMA/DAP). Polymerization was carried out by catalyst heat treatment. Impregnated samples showed significant improvements in compressive and impact strengths, hardness, and dimensional stability (toward water) over that of the untreated rubberwood.
