The experiment idea is to use a preexisting bio-insulator mixture created with hemp hurd, lime (calcium hydroxide) and water called hempcrete and add in bamboo to test its effectiveness. In the cannabis industry, after the process of extraction of the psychoactive components within the hemp plant, the majority of the plant becomes a waste product. Part of this waste includes the shredded woody core of the plant, also called hemp hurd, which is already being used in the mixture of a commercially available bio-insulator. This material can insulate for temperature and humidity which is especially important in places with extreme heat or cold. The high silica content of the hemp core binds well to the calcium hydroxide (American Lime Technology, n.d.) and in general, “Bamboos have generally high silicon (Si) content” (Collin et al., 2010). Because of these facts, I hypothesize that the bamboo will also bind easily with the mixture. The purpose of this experiment is to see if these materials can feasibly be used as a new sustainable bio-insulator, with different properties that can be studied.
