Abstract
This study aims to evaluate the thermal characteristics of a biosourced insulation based on date palm waste and cardboard (cellulose) waste. The thermal insulation material based on date palm particles and cardboard can be integrated into a wall to improve the energy efficiency of buildings in the Errachidia city (City located in the South-East of Morocco). For this purpose, several samples were prepared separately from the packaging cardboard reinforced with the renewable parts of date palm fibers (petiole, trunk, cluster, pinnate leaves and mesh) with five mass fractions (40%, 50%, 60%, 70% and 80%). The thermal characterization method used is based on the principle of the high insulation thermal house. The results show that cardboard is a good thermal insulator and the addition of date palm waste has a positive effect on increasing the durability and mechanical resistance of our insulation.
