Shear Strength Evaluation of Laminated Binderless Bamboo Composites

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, the interlaminar shear strength properties of laminated binderless bamboo composites is described. The binderless bamboo composites were prepared by hot-pressing of steam-exploded Moso bamboo stripes. In order to explore the effect of node section on the mechanical properties of the laminated binderless bamboo composites, the node section was flattened by shaving the nodes off. The result of our experiment clearly shows that the shear strength of the laminated binderless bamboo composites increased by flattening of the node section.
