Hygrothermal and Acoustical Performance of Starch-Beet Pulp Composites for Building Thermal Insulation

Hygrothermal and Acoustical Performance of Starch-Beet Pulp Composites for Building Thermal Insulation

This article deals with the elaboration and the characterization of an innovative 100% plant-based green composite made solely of beet pulp (BP) and potato starch (S). Using this type of material in insulation applications seems a good solution to reduce the CO2 gas emissions in building. The influe...
