N2  - 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 (towars water) over that of the untreated rubberwood
