Grapevine shoots for improving thermal properties of structural fired clay bricks: New method of agricultural-waste valorization
(American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2017)
Thermal insulation of roofs by using multiple air gaps separated by insulating layers of low infrared emissivity
(Elsevier, 2020-01)
In recent work we have demonstrated the ability of a new thermal insulation design based on creating air cavities between parallel layers of insulation material with a low infrared emissivity (Expanded Polystyrene, 0.6) ...
Ceramic Thermal Insulator Based on Diatomite Obtained by Starch Consolidation Casting
(MDPI Open Access JournalsPE, 2023-05-28)
Researchers are continuously seeking to develop new materials to protect against inclement
weather and thus optimize energy efficiency in housing. This research aimed to determine the
influence of corn starch percentage ...
Thermal insulators with multiple air gaps: Performance, cost and embodied impacts
(Elsevier, 2017-07)
The aim of this work is to demonstrate the potential thermal, environmental and cost advantages of a thermal insulation, which consists on several air chambers between layers of an insulation material with low infrared ...
Characterization of an alternative thermal insulation material using recycled expanded polystyrene
(Elsevier, 2021-09)
Thermal insulations help to reduce household energy demand and extend the periods of thermal comfort generated by heating and cooling systems. Conventional isolations may not be economically accessible to all social sectors, ...
Evaluation of Two Chilean Native Macroalgae: “Pelillo” (Gracilaria chilensis) and “Lamilla” (Ulva sp.) for Thermal Insulation Application
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2024)
Recycling scrap automotive heat shield insulation material
(Springer, 2015-01-01)
Automotive heat shields are usually composed of two metal sheets enclosing an insulating material with a paper-like texture that contains refractory ceramic particles. This article discusses the results achieved by recycling ...
Thermal behavior of metallic and fiber cement tiles with simple and double layers
(Univ Fed Rural Semi-arido-ufersa, 2018-07-01)
This research was conducted aiming to evaluate the thermal behavior of metallic and fiber cement tiles installed in simple and double layers. The experiment was performed on prototypes of roofing in single layers and ...
