Weatherguard® WG-9003 LG

Weatherguard® WG-9003 LG by Teknor Apex is a polyolefin-based, 100% capstock compound made from a blend of wood flour and polyolefin plastics. It is a highly weatherable capstock for wood/plastic composite (WPC) decking. It exhibits superior durability, scratch resistance and helps to contain costs. It shows a color change of less than 0.5 Delta E for dark brown, after 5000hr in QUV® accelerated weathering tests. It offers five- to tenfold improvements in elongation and impact strength in comparison with a standard competing compound, while sacrificing only 15% in tensile strength. Weatherguard® WG-9003 LG is used with PVC substrates in decking, railings, fencing, siding, windows and doors.
