Interfacial shear strength characterisation of alkali treated bamboo bundle–polyester composites using an improved technique

This study examined the influences of alkali concentration on the interfacial characteristics of bamboo–polyester. Pull-out tests were carried out using a newly designed jig to minimise the fibre breakage during clamping. Bamboo bundles were embedded at 3, 5, 7 and 10 mm and alkali concentrations ra...
