Mechanical properties of novel hybrid bamboo fibre/ aluminium mesh reinforced polymer composite

Bamboo fibres are one of the sustainable lignocellulosic resources explored for polymer composites in recent years. Research has shown that bamboo fibres have the potential to be used in a variety of critical applications. Nevertheless, bamboo fibres are susceptible to thermal and hygroscopic loads,...
