摘要：The effects of aluminum hydroxide (aluminum trihydrate (ATH)) flame retardant (FR) addition on the mechanical and physical properties of bambo dust particle (BDP) reinforced polyester composite were studied. Hand lay-up method was used in producing the composites. The surface morphology of the samples was studied using scanning electron microscope (SEM) micrographs. The result indicated that addition of ATH caused a marginal decrease in the tensile properties for all samples while the flexural properties and impact strength increased with ATH addition at 10wt% only. The density of the composites decreased with increase in the FR loadings, with a density of 1.68g/cm3 and 1.21g/cm3 for non retarded sample and 20wt% ATH loading respectively. It was also observed that the water absorption of the composites with ATH addition are lower than that of bamboo reinforced sample but higher than the unreinforced polyester. The SEM micrograph showed that the 10wt% ATH had better dispersion and less agglomeration of the particles than other panels. The overall results indicated that the composites can be applied in fabrication of collapsible ceiling and particle boards for building wall partitions and other industrial applications.
