“…The flexural strengths were 273 MPa, in the samples with a fiber content of 70%. This value is higher than the flexural strength of the bamboo reinforced material reported in the past [16] [17]. Figures 11-13 show fracture behavior after flexural testing.…”

This paper describes the flexural properties of biodegradable composites made using natural fiber and biodegradable plastics. Biodegradable composites were fabricated from bamboo fiber bundles and PLA (polylactic acid) resin. In this research, effect of molding temperature and fiber content on flexural properties of bamboo fiber reinforced composites was investigated. The flexural strength of this composite increased with increasing fiber content up to 70%. The flexural strength of composites decreased at molding temperature of 180˚C. Biodegradable composites possessed extremely high flexural strength of 273 MPa, in the case of molding temperature of 160˚C and fiber content of 70%.

“…Other fabrication procedures are heating under vacuum [9], RTM (resin transfer moulding) [6,10,11], pultrusion [6] or electrospinning for bio-nanocomposites [12]. However, compression moulding after a film stacking of fibre and matrix plies is one of the most popular processes to manufacture biocomposites [13][14][15][16][17].…”

“…Many studies have been conducted to overcome the brittleness of PLA by several approaches, such as chemical modification [3], blending with tougher resins or plasticizers [4,5], preparation of multi-layered film structures [6], fibre reinforcement [7,8] and use of woven structures [9,10]. However, these modifications generally affect the strength, stiffness, or degradability of PLA.…”

Impact resistant all-poly(lactic acid) composites were prepared by filmstacking of highly crystalline poly(lactic acid) (PLA) fibres with fully amorphous PLA films. The flammability of the self-reinforced PLA composites (PLA-SRCs) was effectively reduced by incorporating ammonium polyphosphate based flame retardant (FR) additive and montmorillonite clays in a weight ratio of 10 to 1 into the matrix layers. As low as 16 wt% FR content proved to be sufficient for achieving self-* Corresponding author: tel: +36 1/463-1348, e-mail: kbocz@mail.bme.hu, address: Műegyetem rkp. 3., Budapest, 1111, Hungary 2 extinguishing behaviour, i.e. UL94 V-0 rating, and to achieve 50% and 40% reduction of peak of heat release rate and total heat emission, respectively. The introduction of FR additives improved also important mechanical properties compared to the FR-free all-PLA composite. The stiffness of the PLA-SRCs increased steadily with the FR contents of their matrix layers, furthermore, owing to the improved fibre-matrix bonding, prominent energy absorption capacity (impact perforation energy as high as 16 J/mm) was determined for the effectively flame retarded PLA-SRC.
