  As the use of wood plastic composites (WPC) in various industries has increased significantly and due to the high importance of environmental issues in industry and research and the fact that products made of petroleum polymers have too little biodegradability, it is important to conduct research to improve and solve this environmental problem. Due to the high amount of volatile nitrogen, low quality fish powder is not used in the industry, and as a result, it can be use as cheap and biodegradable filler in wood plastic. In this research, the effect of fish powder amount, substrate type, and coupling agent (MAPE) amount on the physical characteristics of wood-plastic composite was investigated. The results showed that by increasing fish powder amount and decreasing coupling agent amount, the highest amount of degradability is obtained. Manuscript profile
