Abstract

Bamboo nanofibers, fibrils, and nanocomposites etc. has been notably researched throughout the years in the field of material science. Researchers demonstrate that bamboo possess good mechanical properties, biodegradability, rapidly growing properties, low costs, availability and sustainability. Bamboo nanocomposites are advantageous as a biodegradable material which could potentially replace numerous nondegradable conventional materials possessing similar properties and performance. Hence, this chapter summarizes the future development and applications of bamboo nanocomposites.
