Evaluation of Uniformity of Bamboo Bundle Veneer and Bamboo Bundle Laminated Veneer Lumber (BLVL)
The lack of an effective and practical quality control method for industrialized bamboo bundle veneers is the key restriction in the application of bamboo bundle composite materials in the field of construction. In this work, the density uniformity and mechanical properties of bamboo bundle veneers...

The lack of an effective and practical quality control method for industrialized bamboo bundle veneers is the key restriction in the application of bamboo bundle composite materials in the field of construction. In this work, the density uniformity and mechanical properties of bamboo bundle veneers were systematically evaluated by the combination of light transmittance and mechanical stiffness. It was found that the number of broomings, dippings, and high-temperature heat treatments had different effects on the bamboo bundle veneers. On this basis, the uniformity of the density and mechanical properties of the bamboo scrimber (BS) that underwent hybrid paving, and the bamboo bundle laminated veneer lumber (BLVL), were analyzed. The results showed that the performance stability of bamboo bundle composites could be greatly improved by bamboo bundle veneer laminated paving. A large-scale quality evaluation system for bamboo bundle veneers was established in this work, and it provides conditions for the manufacture of bamboo bundle composites with stable and controllable performance. |
