“…This two-step degradation process can be categorized into the temperature ranges of 200-300 C and 400-500 C. The first degradation can be attributed to the decomposition of bamboo fillers aided by depolymerization of the cellulosic contents present in the bamboo fillers. 35,36 the second step of degradation above 400 C can be associated with the degradation of epoxy polymer matrix. It can be noticed that there is not any significant initial degradation due to the evaporation of moisture around 100 C like it was seen for the BFs.…”

This work presents the thermal and mechanical characterization of epoxy composites reinforced with different fillers developed by modifying thermo‐mechanically extracted bamboo micron fibers. The modification of bamboo fibers was done by adding carbon nanoparticles to their surface and also by making powdered fillers using the process of ball milling. A decrease in water absorption in case of surface coated bamboo fibers was observed. The glass transition behavior was enhanced for composites filled with milled bamboo fillers as compared to neat epoxy. Better mechanical properties were observed for composites reinforced with milled bamboo fillers compared to that of composites filled with bamboo fibers. The highest tensile strength (90.258 MPa) was observed for composites reinforced with 5 wt% of milled bamboo fillers depicting an increase of 93.01% compared to that of neat epoxy (46.762 MPa).Highlights Bamboo fibers were modified with a sizing agent and carbon nanoparticles. A novel “milled bamboo filler” was produced and incorporated in composites. Thermal properties of epoxy composite were enhanced by the novel filler. Tensile strength of the composite was significantly enhanced. The novel filler has the future scope of application in various composite products.

Cutting force and temperature are critical indicators for improving cutting performance and productivity. This study used an up-milling experiment to ascertain the effect of tool tooth number, cutting speed, and depth on the machinability of bamboo–plastic composite. We focused on the changes in the resultant force and cutting temperature under different milling conditions. A response surface methodology was used to build prediction models for the resultant force and temperature. A verification test was conducted to prove the model’s reliability. The empirical findings suggested that the number of tool teeth had the most significant impacts on both the resultant force and the cutting temperature, followed by the depth of cut and the cutting speed. Moreover, the resultant force and cutting temperature showed increasing trends with decreasing numbers of tool teeth and increasing cut depths. However, cutting speed had a negative relationship with the resultant force and a positive relationship with temperature. We also determined the optimal milling conditions with the lowest force and temperature: four tool teeth, 300 m/min cutting speed, and 0.5 mm depth. This parameter combination can be used in the industrial manufacture of bamboo–plastic composite to improve tool life and manufacturing productivity.

“…In literature, several research works 2,7,11,14-21 have reported on use of multi component polymer blends to toughen the natural fibre reinforced polymer composite material. However, there are very few works which describe the effect of reinforcement percentage variation along with elastomer addition 20,21 and there are no works which discuss the effect of elastomer addition in bamboo polymer composites with homopolymer and copolymer matrix.…”

Reinforcing thermoplastic polymers with natural fibres tends to improve tensile and flexural strength but adversely affect elongation and impact strength. This limits the application of such composites where toughness is a major criterion. In the present work, bamboo fibre reinforced polypropylene (PP) composites were prepared with bamboo fibre content varying from 30% to 50% with improved impact resistance. Homopolymer and copolymer PP were used as the matrix polymer and an elastomer was used (10% by wt.) as an additive in the formulation. Copolymer based composites exhibited superior elongation and impact strength as compared to homopolymer based composites. The adverse impact of elastomer on tensile and flexural strength was more pronounced in homopolymer based composites. The study suggested that the properties of the bamboo composites can be tailored to suit different applications by varying reinforcement and elastomer percentage.
