ABSTRACT = {To overcome warping in thin bamboo bundle veneer laminated composites (TBLC), their hydrothermal deformation characteristics were systematically investigated in this study. It was found that TBLCs accelerated the release
of internal stress in the thickness direction in a hydrothermal environment, which increased their warpage.
TBLCs showed increased warpage in the width and diagonal directions upon increasing the temperature. The
warpage of Type E increased by 155.88% and 66.67% in the width and diagonal directions, respectively, when
the temperature increased from 25 C to 100 C. The symmetrical TBLC with cross-lay-up and odd layers displayed better hydrothermal stability. We revealed that the deformation of the TBLCs could be regulated under
the synergistic effect of water and temperature. These results provide a scientific basis for improving the uniformity of bamboo bundle composite materials and for developing thin bamboo bundle fiber composite materials
with designable structures and controllable performance.},
