The present disclosure provides an environment-friendly mildew prevention method for bamboo. The mildew prevention method for bamboo includes the following steps: soaking the bamboo in an acid solution to obtain a reaction system; subjecting the reaction system to a hydrolysis reaction to obtain a hydrolyzed product; and washing and drying the hydrolyzed product in sequence to obtain mildew-proof bamboo, where the acid solution is an inorganic acid solution or an organic acid solution; the inorganic acid solution has a mass concentration of 0.5-8%; the organic acid solution has a mass concentration of 2-40%. The present disclosure uses an inorganic acid solution or an organic acid solution to treat the bamboo, and reduces the content of starch in the bamboo through a hydrolysis reaction, thereby reducing a carbon source with starch as the main nutrient on which a mildew fungus depends and achieving the purpose of preventing the bamboo from mildewing.

The present invention discloses an assembled bamboo sleeper, which is obtained by using a bamboo unit as a raw material, dried and modified at the temperature of 110-180° C., undergone coating treatment using a dopamine solution, adhesive dipping, curing and solidifying, assembling and gluing, further solidifying, further treatment using a dopamine solution, and anti-mildew and/or anti-corrosion and/or anti-insect treatment, and then fastened. The present invention further provides a preparation method for the foregoing bamboo sleeper. The bamboo sleeper prepared in the present invention is green and environmentally friendly, and applicable for ballasted tracks of railways and urban rail transit systems.

The present invention discloses a one-step integrally-formed bamboo sleeper. For the one-step integrally-formed bamboo sleeper, a bamboo unit is used as a raw material, to be dried and modified at the temperature of 110-180° C., and then subject to adhesive dipping, adhesive throwing, solidification, dopamine solution treatment, anti-mildew and/or anti-corrosion and/or anti-insect treatment, and fastening, to obtain the one-step integrally-formed bamboo sleeper with a density of 0.9-1.5 g/cm.sup.3. The present invention further provides a preparation method for the foregoing bamboo sleeper. The bamboo sleeper prepared in the present invention has a suitable elastic modulus, and applicable for ballasted tracks of railways and urban rail transit systems.

Disclosed is a bamboo strip shaping method, which includes the following steps: S01: cutting a bamboo tube, and removing inner joints, outer joints and bamboo outer skin; S02: trisecting or quartering the bamboo tube in a longitudinal direction to obtain curved bamboo strips; S03: placing the curved bamboo strips in a bamboo strip shaping device for processing; S04: subjecting the curved bamboo strips to steam treatment and heating softening treatment; S05: pressing and shaping the curved bamboo strips to obtain flattened bamboo strips, and drying for a first time under a maintained pressure; S06: wetting bamboo outer skin surfaces and bamboo inner skin surfaces of the flattened bamboo strips, and drying for a second time; and S07: wetting the bamboo outer skin surfaces and the bamboo inner skin surfaces of the flattened bamboo strips, and drying for a third time.

A method for reinforcing and enhancing bamboo/wood materials employs a sulfuric acid hydrolysis method to prepare a nanocellulose dispersion solution; then with the nanocellulose dispersion solution having a certain concentration as a precursor, nano zinc oxide is in-situ produced on the surface of the nanocellulose; and the cellulose dispersion solution is improved by compounding. The obtained treatment solution is impregnated into the pores of bamboo/wood materials in a specific manner to play the role of filling, binding and consolidating the bamboo/wood tissues, so that the treated bamboo/wood materials have enhanced hardness, strength and dimension stability, and significantly-improved mildew- and corrosion-resistance. The method is suitable for the reinforcing and enhancing treatment of wood materials with relatively-loose texture, such as fast-growing wood and wood from a planted forest, and is also suitable for the reinforcement and restoration of slightly-rotten wood materials.

A method of forming a composite material includes: a) providing a substrate with fibres, lignin and hemicellulose; b) partially removing the lignin and hemicellulose from the substrate; and c) compressing the remaining substrate to form a compressed substrate. A composite material formed by the method is also provided.

An apparatus for delaminating a bamboo into fibers includes a machine frame, a machine seat arranged in a middle of the machine, a machine cover matching with the machine seat, a push plate, a power source, and an elastic member. The machine seat includes multiple grooves formed in a top to respectively receive therein bamboo pieces. The machine cover includes multiple ribs formed on a bottom thereof. The machine cover is slidable relative to the machine seat to have the ribs of the machine cover respectively receivable in and engageable with the grooves of the machine seat so as to sandwich bamboo pieces therebetween. A push plate is driven by the power source to selectively move relative to the machine seat and has a bent end portion that bends and pushes portions of the bamboo pieces to slide on the top of the machine cover.

Disclosed is a method for preparing a hydrophilic writing sliced bamboo veneer, including, in sequence, the following steps: (1) processing a sliced bamboo veneer into thin bamboo sheets with a thickness of 0.2-0.6 mm; (2) selecting the thin bamboo sheets with less color difference and fewer processing defects, and rolling the selected thin bamboo sheets on a plane; (3) performing deburring, sanding, and surface polishing on the rolled thin bamboo sheets; (4) performing mildewproofing and mothproofing treatment on the thin bamboo sheets; (5) performing surface coating treatment on the thin bamboo sheets using a coating material; (6) drying the coated thin bamboo sheets at low temperature; (7) fine-polishing the dried thin bamboo sheets; (8) cutting the thin bamboo sheets; and (9) flattening, compacting, and piling the cut thin bamboo sheets for future use.
