Abstract: To investigate the influence of coupling agents on the flow performance of wood/rubber/HDPE mixed raw materials in manufacture of composites, maleic anhydride grafted polyethylene(MAPE)and silane coupling agents(Si69)were applied to modify the interface of the wood/rubber/HDPE composites. The adding amount of MAPE were 3%, 5% and 8%, and Si69 was 0.5%, 1%, 3% and 5%. The results showed significant influences of the two coupling agents on the rheological properties of the mixed raw materials and significant interactive effects between the two kinds of coupling agents. With 5% MAPE used alone, the mixed materials showed minimum shear stress and apparent viscosity, which means an optimal processing performance. When used together, 3% MAPE and 3% Si69 were proved to be the best combination.
