AB  - This study investigated the effect of board type (unmodified vs. MAPE modified) 
      on the surface quality and thickness swelling-water absorption properties of 
      recycled high density polyethylene (HDPE) based wood plastic composites. 
      Additionally, two commercially available coatings (cellulosic coating and 
      polyurethane lacquer coating) were also applied to composite surfaces and their 
      adhesion strength, abrasion and scratch resistance, and gloss values were 
      determined. This study showed that modification of the composites with MAPE 
      coupling agent increased the surface smoothness and reduced the water absorption 
      and thickness swelling of the panels. Abrasion resistance of the composites was 
      also improved through MAPE modification. Regardless of board type, higher scratch 
      resistance and gloss values were observed for polyurethane lacquer coated samples 
      compared to those of cellulosic varnish coated ones. Improvement of adhesion 
      strength was also seen on SEM micrographs.
