Influence of the composite preparing technology and filler type (hemp waste and hemp fibres) on the performance characteristics (melt flow index and water resistance) of the composites based on a linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) was investigated. The best melt flow index (MFI) results were achieved when as composites preparing method extrusion and two rolls mill with lubricant additive combination were used. It is established that usage of extrusion mixing method of the hemp fibers containing LLDPE composites significantly affects materials melts fluidity evaluated by values of MFI and quality of extruded profile. The lowest fluidity was observed for composite with hemp waste prepared by two rolls mill processing method. The best water resistance was observed for composites with lubricant and for their preparing two rolls mill and extrusion processing methods combination was used.
