Large-span Bamboo Fiber-based Composites, Part I: A Prediction Model based on the Lucas-Washburn Equation Describing the Resin Content of Bamboo Fiber Impregnated with Different PVAC/PF Concentrations

BioResources, 2014
To predict the resin absorbing content of bamboo bundle fiber, a model relating to the soaking time and mass ratio of polyvinyl acetate (PVAC) adhesive to phenol formaldehyde (PF) resin defined on the basis of the Lucas-Washburn equation was proposed ...

Identification and Characterization of the PEBP Family Genes in Moso Bamboo (Phyllostachys heterocycla). [PDF]

, 2019
Moso bamboo is one of the economically most important plants in China. Moso bamboo is a monocarpic perennial that exhibits poor and slow germination. Thus, the flowering often causes destruction of moso bamboo forestry.

On the Origins of Toughness in Corymbia calophylla (Marri Tree) Nuts

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We uncover the natural toughening mechanisms of the marri nut, including fiber pullout, crack deflection, and a viscoelastic matrix, which enable exceptional energy absorption and ductility comparable to Teflon, with an elastic modulus similar to acrylic.

Tunable plasmonic resonances in highly porous nano-bamboo Si-Au superlattice-type thin films [PDF]

, 2018
We report on fabrication of spatially-coherent columnar plasmonic nanostructure superlattice-type thin films with high porosity and strong optical anisotropy using glancing angle deposition. Subsequent and repeated depositions of silicon and gold lead to

Ultrastrong TEMPO‐Oxidized Densified Bamboo via Interface Decoupling and Hierarchical Toughening

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops TEMPO‐oxidized densified bamboo that achieves ultrahigh strength and toughness by decoupling rigid hydrogen bonds into reversible van der Waals interactions. TEMPO oxidation reorganizes the cellulose hydrogen‐bonding network, facilitating energy dissipation via reversible interactions, thereby establishing a general strategy to ...
