The National Science Foundation awarded a $256,000 Small Business Innovation Research Phase I Project Grant to develop bamboo-based composite filaments for structural purposes. The award period runs from April 1, 2021 through March 31, 2022. Under the NSF's Engineering program (CFDA #47.041), which seeks to foster innovation and excellence in engineering research and education, this grant will support the recipient in Jupiter, Florida to produce and test bamboo-based composite filaments for structural applications. The goal is to determine the technical merit and feasibility of developing this environmentally-friendly material as an alternative to traditional structural composites.
