Abstract

This paper describes a method to fabricate short bamboo fiber reinforced “green” composites (BFGC) and evaluate their mechanical properties. The composites were prepared by hot-pressing a mixture of starch-based resin and short bamboo fibers. Their tensile strength and flexural strength were characterized. The effects of fiber content and fiber length on the mechanical properties of BFGC were investigated in detail. Both tensile and flexural strengths of BFGC were strongly affected by fiber aspect ratio and fiber content. Bamboo fibers with a small aspect ratio of 20 do not act as reinforcement but as filler.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
