This review aims to comprehensively consolidate the knowledge and understanding of the
development of thermal insulation materials for buildings using lignocellulosic waste …

This study is a review of published literature that discusses the utilization of biochar (BC)
and plastics as filler and matrix, respectively, in a composite material. These composites …

Used COVID-19 masks produce a large amount of garbage that frequently overwhelms
waste management facilities, hence they are frequently disposed of improperly. It is …

This study investigated the microstructural and mechanical properties of hybrid composites
developed by the reinforcement of solvated polystyrene with expanded polyethylene powder …

In this study, expanded polyethylene powder (EPE) and mica mineral were utilized in
varying proportions as fillers in a solvated polystyrene-based resin (PBR) matrix. The hand …

Composite material development for industrial uses is a critical technology in solid waste
management. In this study, we report, for the first time, the synthesis of thermally cured …

The purpose of this study is to minimize the environmental impact and to reduce the cost of
petroleum-derived polystyrene by the use of date palm leaves remnants in the production of …

The usage of the mechanically extracted plantain stalk fibers and local clay (akerebiata clay)
as fillers in solvated polystyrene resin was employed in this study. Hand layup route of …

Because of its superior mechanical qualities, chemical resistance, and adherence to a
variety of substrates, epoxy resin is the most often utilized plastic matrix in composite …

As plastics, metals and agricultural wastes are mounting up daily, one major aspect of solid
waste management is recycling of multiple solid wastes to develop functional materials. A …
