Softening Behavior of Black Sweet-Bamboo (Dendrocalamus asper Backer) at Various Initial Moisture Contents

Softening behavior of bamboo (Dendrocalamus asper Backer) at various initial moisture contents (0 %, 13 %, 37 % and 60 %) was investigated by means of dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA). The tests were performed in a bending mode over a temperature range of 0 - 300 °C. A heating rate of 3 °...
