Abstract

Extensive laboratory testing on the manufacturing of bamboo composite panels produced from tropical and temperate bamboos is presented. Test manufacturing parameters included resin content (percentage by weight) and target product density. A complete analysis of different engineering properties was conducted.

The 16 mm thick bamboo particleboard developed exceeds the performance of wood particleboards and waferboards (according to CSA and ANSI standards). The product can be easily substituted for current wood products and cement based panels for use in construction, packaging, furniture, and other industrial applications. While the performance results of the test panels covers a broad range, the panel technology clearly covers the performance requirements of common international standards for particleboard panels.
