Our bamboo plastic composite from bamboo powder

bamboo-plastic composite is made of extrusion and
injection molding process. Results show: when bamboo
powder content is 30%, impacting strength of the
material is the highest; the bamboo-plastic composite
which made of Silane and MAPE has higher impacting
strength than others; when PP: HDPE = 2:3, the
impacting strength of the bamboo-plastic composite is
the highest. Compared with these factors, the coupling
agent on impacting strength is the most obvious
