Quasi-Static Compression Properties of Bamboo and PVC Tube Reinforced Polymer Foam Structures

Abstract: In recent years, there has been a growing interest for composite materials due to the superior capability to absorb energy and lightweight factor. These properties are compatible to be utilized in the development for transportation system as it can reduce the fuel consumption and also minimize the effect of crash to the passenger. Therefore, the aim for this project is to study the compression strength and energy absorbing capability for Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and bamboo tubes reinforced with foam. Several p… Show more

“…Increasing the foam density further enhances these values. Additionally, a larger diameter of the bamboo tube improves both specific energy absorption and CS [21]. Bamboo scriber exhibits superior strength and stiffness compared to other wood-and bamboo-based products, making it a viable substitute for wood in structural applications.…”

“…Concerns about the environment, the rising greenhouse effect and increasing interest in the use of sustainable materials has motivated researchers to investigate biocomposite materials. Today, fibre-reinforced polymers are used in several applications including in packaging [3,11,12]; electrical and electronic appliances [13,14]; crossarm structures [15]; foam structures [16]; as energy storage [17,18]; in automotives [19]; in filter, coating, and bone tissue engineering; in drug delivery [20]; human prosthetics [21]; and more. The continuous development and appearance on the market of new high-performance reinforcing fibers in polymer composites have constituted a strong challenge for researchers to design and adapt new functional composites for several applications [22][23][24][25][26][27][28].…”
