Materials which have substantial weatherability and impact resistance
include a substantially uniform blend of an acrylonitrile/styrene/acrylic
(ASA) polymeric material, a wood component in an amount effective as a
filler, and a vinyl chloride polymeric material. Methods for making such
compositions include combining a first population of pellets comprising
an ASA polymeric material and a wood component, and a second population
of different pellets comprising a vinyl chloride polymeric material.
