EVA vs. Bamboo Plywood
EVA belongs to the thermoplastics classification, while bamboo plywood belongs to the wood-based materials. There are 12 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (9, in this case) are not shown.
For each property being compared, the top bar is EVA and the bottom bar is bamboo plywood.
