"We have been developing such a product ever since," Feng said.
"Of course, we broke through a series of technical difficulties in almost three years, such as how to prevent the bamboo keyboard frame from cracking, how to prevent the bamboo bottom plate from distorting and how to make bamboo buttons firmly linked with the main board," he said.
"You needn't worry that it might crack even if it drops from a one-meter-high table. Its user-life is no shorter than a plastic one," he added.
"The degradability of the keyboard can be enhanced with the substitution of bamboo for plastics, so it's environment-friendly," said Professor Zhu Zhenghou, from the School of Materials Science and Engineering with the Nanchang University.
"It can bring computer users a unique feeling: cool in the summer while warm in the winter. In addition, it can prevent static electricity and the bamboo veins have the function of absorbing ultraviolet radiation," he said.
"It is gaining recognition and popularity step by step as more and more people want to experience new things and lead a green life," said Zhang.
