“…This increase occurs because the bamboo particles act as reinforcement which distributes the tensile load to the matrix so that the tensile strength increases. The tensile strength of the composite is consistent with previous researchers such as [18,19,22,23,42]. When the matrix is reinforced with bamboo particles, this tensile strength is significantly increased, where the SBT or SBH particles resist the load and consequently increase the strength of the composite material.…”

“…Several studies have been conducted on the effect of particle volume fraction on the mechanical properties of bamboo particle composite materials, both pure bamboo particles and a combination of 2 different types of particles [13,[19][20][21][22], types of thermosetting and thermoplastic matrices [18,[22][23][24], fiber shape and size [25][26][27], and fiber orientation [28][29][30], all of which target an increase in mechanical properties.…”

Bamboo particles as reinforcement in composite materials are prospective to be applied to particleboard products in the industry. This study aimed to synthesize bamboo particle reinforced polymer composites as a substitute for particleboard products, which still use wood as a raw material. The parameters of the composite synthesis process were varied with powder sizes of 50, 100, and 250 mesh, each mesh with volume fractions of 10, 20, and 30%, matrix types of polyester and polypropylene, Tali Bamboo, and Haur Hejo Bamboo as reinforcements. Characterization included tensile strength, flexural strength, and morphology. Particleboard products were tested based on JIS A 5908-2003, including density testing, moisture content, thickness expansion after immersion in water, flexural strength in dry and wet conditions, bending Young’s modulus, and wood screw holding power. The results showed that the maximum flexural and tensile strength values of 91.03 MPa and 30.85 MPa, respectively, were found in polymer composites reinforced with Tali bamboo with the particle size of 250 mesh and volume fraction 30%. Particleboard made of polypropylene and polyester reinforced Tali Bamboo with a particle size of 250 mesh and a volume fraction of 30% composites meets the JIS A 5908-2003 standard.

“…Three specimens of each composite were tested, with average values recorded for analysis. A Rockwell hardness test was also performed in accordance with ASTM E18 to determine material strength and wear resistance [34]. The orientation and distribution of the bres were determined using a microscopic analysis on the GX51 Olympus inverted metallurgical microscope.…”

Bamboo is an ancient structural material used for a variety of applications in India. Bamboo is widely used in the global south for frames, bridges, housing, and transitory structures. Bamboo supply has been effectively inexpensive as well as plentiful in global south countries to meet the widespread need for affordable housing. The current research focuses on the mechanical properties of bamboo fibre reinforced polymer composite materials for use in structural industries. Moreover, a bamboo fibre reinforced composite was compared to glass fibre in a variety of ways, and it was discovered that the bamboo fibre composite outperformed the glass fibre in a few areas. Investigations revealed the potential use of bamboo fibre reinforced composite with good stiffness but a lower strength limitation than glass fibre composite. Tensile strength of 40.53 MPa and hardness value of 68.2 RHN were achieved by E-glass epoxy composites. However, the results of bamboo fibre reinforced composites cannot be overlooked. Further research was conducted to improve the mechanical properties, and the results were satisfactory.

“…Ramachandran et al [65] studied bamboo, banana, and linen fibers cut into 2-4 mm of length, with epoxy resin in random orientations. In order to characterize the natural fibers, the authors also carried out FT-IR but did not describe the sample preparation and mode of analysis, as well as the previous study [64] .…”

A variety of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) has been described in literature, with a considerable subset of studies focused on fiber surface treatment (sizing), performance enhancement of matrix and fibers both synthetic and natural, and development of more ecologically sustainable composites. The present review discusses the different types of fibers and matrices and their applications, depending on the chemical and mechanical properties of their composites. In order to evaluate the performance of FRP composites and explore the characteristics of the involved materials, some analytical techniques are considered paramount, such as thermal analysis, microscopy, Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and others. On this basis, this review addresses the state-of-the-art of material characterization methodologies, provides a comprehensive overview of different types of FRP found in literature, as well as links the analytical techniques with the main applications contributing to future studies and research in this area.
