Abstract

The bamboo strand lumber (scrimber) reinforced with different concentration of nano particles were developed. Nano-CaCO3, CaO, MgCO3, and MgO reinforcement was proposed to improve mechanical properties of bamboo scrimber. The samples were evaluated for mechanical properties viz. Modulus of elasticity (MoE) and Modulus of rupture (MoR). The results showed that mechanical property of bamboo scrimber was improved by introducing nano particles. The MOR values show an increment of 21.7% and 5.64% for 2% and 5% of nano particle reinforcement compared to 139.9 N/mm2 of untreated one: whereas, in the case of 2% pre-impregnation, the increase in MOR is 31.7%. The optimal reinforcement of nano particles was at 2% pre-impregnation treatment. The significance of results was also established by performing Significance of variance (ANOVA) test.
