Laboratory tests on properties of innovative natural thermal insulation material

Abstract Nowadays, there is an increasing demand on environmentally friendly materials, so the conscious architecture and use of materials have also become preferred. It becoming increasingly important to turn from artificial products made renewable raw materials. The straw quilt, which considered be a new, innovative product Hungarian construction market, can provide alternative for this need. aim research was investigate material properties possible uses quilt thermal insulation. Laboratory tests were performed before placed market. results shown that it has several advantageous make competitive in market insulation
