In the last few years, resource usage, resource efficiency and sustainability have been targeted in the environmentally-related political incentive plans of the European Union (EU). The results show that the insulation effectiveness and mechanical stability of moss panels bound with tannin and animal glue are comparable to standard adhesives used in the composite industry.Īccording to Zarestky and Collins (2017), global challenges such as climate change, limited resources and political instability are some of the reasons why many organizations and companies face increasing pressure to focus on the resource-related aspects of producing or procuring their products. The physical–mechanical properties, namely, thermal conductivity (TC), water vapor diffusion resistance, modulus of rupture (MOR), modulus of elasticity (MOE), internal bond (IB), compression resistance (CR), water absorption (WA) and thickness swelling (TS) were measured and analyzed. The panels were pressed with tannin and animal-based resins and compared to panels bonded with urea formaldehyde. This article focuses on the production and characterization of insulation panels consisting of peat moss and two bio-based adhesives. In recent years, the importance and diversity of bio-based adhesives for industrial applications has grown steadily. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Rising energy and raw material prices, dwindling resources, increased recycling, and the need for sustainable management have led to growth in the smart materials sector.
