Investigation of pathways to impart hydrophobicity and flame retardancy in bamboo fiber-based foams

Puntos clave

• Hydrophobicity and flame retardancy were significantly improved in bamboo fiber-based foams.
• The study showed hydrophobicity increased by approximately 30%, enhancing material performance.
• Analysis of various treatment pathways demonstrated effective interventions for foams.
• These findings support the potential for bamboo fibers in sustainable material applications.
