“…It can be concluded that the high-temperature heat treatment has an effect on degradation of cellulose. According to Torres et al (1986), dissolution of cellulose is minimal at temperatures below 200 °C. Cellulose has a highly ordered crystalline structure that provides stability to the cellulose chains and protects them against acid attack during hydrolysis (Fengel and Wegener 1984;Efanov 2001).…”

Bamboo has received increased attention as a biomass material because it is fast growing and has good mechanical properties. But bamboo is very vulnerable to mold fungi, which greatly limits its applications. In this paper, bamboo was firstly hydrothermally treated at 140 °C by three different treatments: with water only, NaOH, and NaAc aqueous solution, then heat treated at relatively mild conditions (180 °C). Subsequently, the mold resistance of bamboo before and after the twostep heat treatment was investigated. The mechanism of mold resistance was analyzed by a bamboo chemical component analysis, FTIR spectroscopy. The results showed that strong degradation of hemicelluloses by heat treatment could inhibit mold growth to some extent. Moreover, the modification of lignin and the creation of phenolic compounds in the bamboo could prevent or slow down fungal growth.

“…Temperatures below 100ºC do not make a hydrolytic effect on the material (Abatzoglou, Chornet, Belkacemi, & Overend, 1992), meanwhile cellulose degradation occurs when working above 250ºC (Rubio Torres, Heitz, Chauvette, Chornet, & Overend, 1986). Apart from being green processes, relatively high holocellulose extraction yields can be obtained with them.…”
