Summary
Bamboo is one of the fastest-growing natural resources on the planet, with remarkable mechanical properties that rival those of traditional wood and even some synthetic fibers. In an era defined by the urgent need for sustainable development and carbon neutrality, bamboo presents itself as a frontrunner in the quest for eco-friendly and high-performance materials. Its rapid renewability, excellent strength-to-weight ratio, and carbon sequestration capabilities make it an ideal candidate for the next generation of composite materials.
This Special Issue invites original research articles, reviews, and case studies focusing on innovative approaches for bamboo. The scope includes material processing, surface modification, characterization, structure-property relationships, and performance analysis in various applications such as packaging, automotive, biomedical, and structural uses. We particularly encourage interdisciplinary contributions that bridge chemistry, materials science, nanotechnology, and engineering for a circular bioeconomy. Suggested themes include but are not limited to:
(1) Functional modification of bamboo
(2) Bamboo as a Plastic Substitute Material Research
(3) Characterization and performance of bamboo composites
(4) Advanced technology of bamboo processing
