In this work, the effect of different compositions of virgin and recycled high density polyethylene/Pinus sp. on physical-mechanical properties of sheets made by compression molding was studied. The compositions were blended in a thermokinetic mixer (Draiss) and compression molded at 150oC. ASTM samples for tensile, flexural, impact and hardness tests were taken from the sheets. The density of the sheets were determined. The statistical model used was a centroid simplex with seven compositions and three repetitions. Results showed that tensile and flexural strength as well as hardness and density followed a linear model, while impact strength is explained by a quadratic model. Physical-mechanical properties of compositions using virgin and recycled HDPE did not show significative changes, except for impact strength, when virgin HDPE showed higher numerical results.
