Study on Moulding Process of Eco-Ceramics Body with Residual Bamboo Fiber

Recently, plant-based ceramics have attracted more and more attention for their low cost and wide application. Therefore, a novel technology using the mold pressing based on formation principle of powder metallurgy craft was introduced firstly to realize binderless agglutination and to obtain the eco-ceramics with residual bamboo fiber. Thermo-gravimetric analysis and conventional measurement were performed to determine the physical and mechanical properties of bamboo ceramics body. The results show that temperature, time and pressure of moulding process all have significant effect on physical-mechanical properties, and that the optimum technology parameter is under the condition of pressure 7 MPa, temperature 160degC, and pressure time 10 min. these results will provide a strong reference for further processing of bambooceramics.
