This approach aimed to enhance transverse strength while addressing size limitations. The obtained transparent bamboo had excellent transparency effect. Furthermore, by optimizing the weaving structure, the anisotropy of transparent bamboo can be adjusted to isotropy, and the absolute error of longitudinal and transverse tensile strength was reduced from 29.9 to 0.7 to obtain homogeneous materials. Finally, the lattice interlocking structure was designed to fabricate a transparent bamboo measuring 2300 mm in length, 530 mm in width, and 1 mm in thickness, which was 66.9 times that of the previously reported transparent bamboo.

Molecular dynamics simulations combined with comprehensive chemical structure characterization validated the rational molecular design and successful synthesis of BPP. Comparative analysis demonstrated that the BPP-modified carbon fiber/epoxy composites (BPPCF/EP) displayed a substantially increased interphase thickness of 412.50 nm compared to unmodified CF/EP (UCF/EP), along with a gradual modulus transition and a notable 78.15 % decrease in interfacial residual stress.
