Abstract

Polymer composites with a polyvinylchloride matrix and crushed meadow-grass-hay filler (MGHF) were obtained by hot pressing. The influence of the content of MGHF in a composition on its physicomechanical properties was researched. It was established that the increment of MGHF content in the composition of a composite leads to change in the values of its properties, most of which are not inferior to those of similar materials filled with wood flour.
