Abstract

Bamboo has received a lot of interest recently as a sustainable structural resource for many purposes including architecture, furniture, automotive and aerospace. This is due to its favourable qualities particularly low density, biodegradable, high mechanical characteristics, and cost economically. The purpose of this research is to provide a review of the relevant breakthroughs and studies on Bamboo Fibre Reinforced Composites (BFRC) focusing on the automotive applications, with an overview of the major findings are reported in the literature with an emphasis on the processing methodology and ultimate BFRC properties and applications in well-designed economical products. The usage of recyclable organic resources in polymer composite research was necessitated by the increasing prices of conventional polymers and engineering raw materials, as well as the critical requirement for sustainability of natural reserves and eliminating environmental concerns.
