Abstract
A composition includes an infrared reflective additive having one or more infrared reflective colorants and a thermally emissive filler. The infrared reflective additive can be melt processed in a polymeric matrix.
Claims18
An article comprising:
- (a) a wood plastic composite core having a peripheral surface;
- and
- (b) a capstock bonded to at least a portion of the peripheral surface of the wood plastic composite core, wherein the capstock comprises a polymer matrix with an infrared reflective additive blended therein, the infrared reflective additive comprising one or more infrared reflective colorants and a thermally emissive filler, and
- wherein the infrared reflective colorant comprises an oxide of one or more of chromium, cobalt, gallium, indium, iron, lanthanum, lithium, manganese, molybdenum, neodymium, nickel, niobium, tin, and/or vanadium.
