Conclusions<br />

Good mechanical properties for bamboo fibres were obtained by using a novel<br />

green mechanical extraction process<br />

Composites based on extracted long bamboo fibres and epoxy resin were<br />

successfully produced<br />

Performance in terms of strength and stiffness reach: 78% and 95% of the<br />

theoretical value (ROM)<br />

Future work: Research in progress - further technology development is<br />

required<br />
