Potential of oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) and sugarcane bagasse fibers for thermal insulation application – A review [PDF]

Construction and Building Materials, 2021
Abstract In Malaysia, the majority of household electricity (45%) is consumed by air conditioning. Such high energy consumption is mainly caused by inefficient insulating materials with poor thermal performance. Hence, the selection of a thermal wall insulator with low thermal conductivity is vital to reduce the energy consumption.
