Characterization of a hemp-based agro-material: Influence of starch ratio and hemp shive size on physical, mechanical, and hygrothermal properties

, 2017
International audienceHemp shives is a lightweight material known for its insulating properties. Associating these bio-fibers with plant-based matrix instead of a mineral binder in insulation applications is of ecological interest. This article describes

From aggregate to composite: Design of flax-based concretes through thermal treatment and hemp synergy for controlled construction practices

Materials & Design
Bio-based composites are promising materials for low-carbon, moisture-regulating building envelopes, yet flax–lime composites are limited by the high-water sensitivity of flax shives, which disrupts binder hydration and reduces mechanical robustness ...

Selected properties of lightweight expanded clay aggregate with the addition of hemp shives

Journal of Physics: Conference Series
Abstract In the context of sustainable construction, the use of low-processed and low-embodied-energy materials is a growing priority. Lightweight expanded clay aggregate (LECA) is a commonly used material due to its favourable mechanical and thermal properties. This study investigates the modification of LECA by incorporating a waste
