Effect of off-axis angle on tension failures of laminated moso bamboo-poplar veneer composites: An in situ characterization

Inspired by the natural gradient structure of the moso bamboo wall, a hybrid moso bamboo(B)Wood(W) veneer Composite (BWC) was developed with a specific structure of [B0°/ W90°/ B0°]. The dynamic fracture behaviors and damage mechanism of the BWC were characterized using in situ scanning electron mic...

description Inspired by the natural gradient structure of the moso bamboo wall, a hybrid moso bamboo(B)Wood(W) veneer Composite (BWC) was developed with a specific structure of [B0°/ W90°/ B0°]. The dynamic fracture behaviors and damage mechanism of the BWC were characterized using in situ scanning electron microscopy. X-ray micro- computed tomography imaging was employed to verify the off-axis tensile mechanical properties. The results showed that the maximum tensile strength and modulus of the BWC under off-axis loadings were 232.25 MPa and 17.47 GPa, respectively. Meanwhile, the maximum specific strength and specific modulus of the BWC were 290.31 MPa·cm3·g−1 and 23.84 GPa·cm3·g−1, respectively, which are higher than both natural wood (95.26 MPa·cm3·g−1, 10.82 GPa·cm3·g−1), bamboo (208.56 MPa·cm3·g−1, 15.74 GPa·cm3·g−1) and even steel alloy (237.86 MPa·cm3·g−1, 21.98 GPa·cm3·g−1). Compared to reorganized bamboo (RB), the porosity of the BWC was 61.1% lower. The BWC was strengthened via internal toughening mechanisms (i.e. fiber bridging) and external toughening mechanisms (i.e. multiregional distribution of micro-cracks). This work highlights methods to design high-performance bio composite from commonly used biomaterials through synergistic strengthening and toughening mechanisms, which has significant advantages in the ever-growing construction industry.
