Properties of transparent bamboo based on different positions of bamboo

Based on the preparation of transparent bamboo, this study optimized the preparation process by selecting different position of bamboo and adjusting the delignification time. It is concluded that the transparent bamboo prepared from middle layer bamboo after 5 h delignification treatment has the best comprehensive performance, with light transmittance of 89.6% and haze of 43.3%. It has excellent tensile strength (89.7 MPa), good thermal insulation performance (0.187Wm−1K−1), certain UV aging resistance, thermal dimensional stability and waterproof properties for outdoor conditions. It can not only select transparent bamboo with the best performance, but also save raw materials as much as possible, so that its application range is wider.
