Bamboo fiber and its reinforced composites: structure and properties (2012, methodology): “Subsequently, the fiber bundles were heated with 0.5 % NaOH (w/v), 2 % sodium sulfite, 2 % sodium silicate and 2 % sodium polyphosphate solutions for about 60 min at 100 C.”
Utilization of solid wastes in construction materials (2010, background): “This kind of fibers is useful to produce polymeric composites such as bamboo fiber reinforced plastic and polyester composites (Jain and Kumar, 1994; Deshpande et al., 2000).”
Physical, chemical, and mechanical properties of bamboo and its utilization potential for fiberboard manufacturing (2004, background): “High tensile strength was observed in the manufactured bamboo fiber reinforced polymeric composites [Deshpande et al. 2000].”
