Effects of WPC Processing
１：Increased fatigue strength
２：Increased wear resistance
３：Improved flow for various materials
４：Increased releasability for a variety of materials
５：Increased adhesion of films
６：Control of heat checking
７：Increased heat resistance and oxidation resistance
８：Improved high-temperature lubrication performance
