Abstract:

Bambusa vulgaris culms sampled from the riverside of Bentong, Pahang, Malaysia
were found to be suitable in the manufacture of cement bonded boards. The
relatively high sugar content of the culms, however, was found to give a retarding
effect on cement setting. In this study, cement ratio (1:3) was found to give better
board properties. Board with a bamboo – cement ratio of 1 : 2.75 with the addition
of 2% chemical additives produces an acceptable board which meet the requirements
of the Malaysia Standard MS 934.
