TL;DR: In this article, the water absorption, dimensional stability, and mechanical properties of the bamboo scrimbers were determined, and a bamboo scrimber made from bamboo bundles processed at 180°C hot dry air treatment combined with 18% PF resin loading showed good technological properties.
Abstract: In this study, mechanical fluffing, thermal treatment, and phenol formaldehyde (PF) impregnation, as well as cold-in and cold-out hot-pressing processes, were used to fabricate bamboo scrimbers. The water absorption, dimensional stability, and mechanical properties of the bamboo scrimbers were determined. The bamboo scrimber made from bamboo bundles processed at 180 °C hot dry air treatment combined with 18 % PF resin loading showed good technological properties. This bamboo scrimber had improved water absorption, as well as thickness and width swelling behavior, which is favorable for application to outdoor landscaping, exterior decoration, and garden furniture. The bamboo scrimber made from bamboo bundles processed at 0.35 MPa saturated steam treatment showed excellent mechanical strength, which is favorable for structural application.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the available literature on the state of the art of bamboo scrimber including the developing history and current production technology of high-performance bamboo scrimbers, and the results of analytical and experimental investigations illustrate the effects of bamboo species, defibering times, heat treatment, adhesives, densities, etc.
Abstract: Bamboo fiber-based composite made from crushed bamboo fiber, termed bamboo scrimber, has gained particular interest of researchers and manufacturers on account of its excellent mechanical characteristics and design. This paper reviewed the available literature on the state of the art of bamboo scrimber including the developing history and current production technology of high-performance bamboo scrimber. The results of analytical and experimental investigations illustrate the effects of bamboo species, defibering times, heat treatment, adhesives, densities, etc. on the performance of bamboo scrimber.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors presented a comprehensive introduction to bamboo scrimber including fabrication, properties, heat treatment, anti-mildew and anti-fungi, surface coating, machining, etc.
Abstract: Bamboo scrimber, a bio-material which is made of bamboo, has been considered as a substitute material in place of wood in China under the situation of increasing contradiction between supply and demand of wood resources. In the last decades, the fabrication technology of bamboo scrimber has been improved, which promotes the applications of this material. Especially in China where the bamboo scrimber was developed originally, blowout-like growth has emerged in related research in the recent 3–5 years. It is urgent to summarize the relevant research and present it to more people who are concerned with the aspects of bamboo scrimber as a bio-material. This paper presents a comprehensive introduction to bamboo scrimber including fabrication, properties, heat treatment, anti-mildew and anti-fungi, surface coating, machining, applications, etc. based on a review of literature from Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Web of Science. This work not only establishes fabrication parameters, surface proof technologies and application samples for the industry practice but also summarizes detailed inspection standards, mechanical and thermal properties regarding bamboo scrimber for the reference of scientific research.
