Flexural Properties of PVC/Bamboo Composites under Static and Dynamic-Thermal Conditions: Effects of Composition and Water Absorption

Figure 1

Static flexural properties of PVC/bamboo composites with different particle size, particle loading ratio, and lubricant content level; (a) mean static flexural modulus and (b) mean static flexural rupture (pure PVC has values 2866 MPa and 73 MPa for modulus and rupture, resp.) (Bahari and Krause 2016).
