ELABORATION ET CARACTERISATION THERMO PHYSIQUE D’UN MATERIAUX COMPOSITE A BASE DE FIBRE PALMIER DATTIER

Abstract

The use of natural fibers is in expansion in the field of the building to replace the insulation materials classics by natural materials. In this case, these fibers are used alone or in combination with other materials, in order to create materials of large work or finishing with a higher temperature resistance. In other sectors, natural fibers are associated with polymers in order to train of composite materials whose applications are increasing that this either in the field of electronics, automotive or of the building. The first aim of the use of natural fibers in this case is the mechanical reinforcement of the polymer. However, the thermal behavior of these materials must also in some cases be taken into account, either because that one wishes to allow the material to evacuate the heat or on the contrary because it wishes the latter possesses good insulating properties
