Abstract
Bamboos are evergreen perennial flowering plants in the subfamily Bambusoideae of the grass family poaceae. The word “bamboo “comes from kannada term bamboo, which introduce to English through Indonesia and Malay. Bamboo is the most amply found with remarkable mechanical property. The investigation essence on optimization of treatment parameters to enhancement bending strength of bamboo. Treatment conditions taken at: 50 °C, 100 °C and 150 °C with palm oil for 30 min, 50 °C, 100 °C and 150 °C with boil water for 30 min. Soaking with water for 30 min, 1 h and 1.5 h, baking with for 30 min, 1 h and 1.5 h, baking for 20 min, 40 min and 60 min at 150 °C and exposing to smoking for 30 min, 60 min and 90 min. the optimum result obtained on specimens treated in water soaking for 90 min; boild in oil with 150 °C for 30 min boiling in water for 30 min at 150 ℃; smoking for 90 min and baking at 150 °C for 60 min results the best performance on bamboo sample ultimately. Optimization confirmed with predicted bending strength and achieved 73.11% of enhancement.
