An improved plastination method for strengthening bamboo culms, without compromising biodegradability
Abstract Biomaterials are increasingly being designed and adapted to a wide range of structural applications, owing to their superior mechanical property-to-weight ratios, low cost, biodegradability, and CO2 capture. Bamboo, specifically, has an interesting anatomy with long tube-like vessels presen...
