Mechanical Properties And Thermal Characteristics Of Sandwich Composite Panel From Spent Mushroom Substrate And Empty Fruit Bunch Fibers Towards Heat Insulation Application

The growing demand for eco-friendly products and materials has prompted several studies on the potentials of natural waste fiber such as coconut husk and sugarcane bagasse as composite panels towards heat insulation application. However, research on composite panels fabricated of the spent mushro...
