“…The functional unit for evaluation of the environmental impacts of thermal insulations is defined in the PCR as the mass (weight) of the insulation necessary to provide thermal resistance R = 1 m 2 ·K·W -1 [17]. Asdrubali et al [9] also used this approach in their work. This approach is suitable for comparison of homogenous thermal insulations with small air cavities like PIR, EPS, MW or foam glass.…”

“…The potential use of CBMs in the construction industry has already been addressed in recently published works of several authors. This study follows the works of Asdrubali et al in [8] and [9], who evaluated the thermal, acoustic and environmental performance of single-and multilayer CFB and cellulose samples. Also related is the work of Secchi et al [10], who investigated the acoustic and environmental performance of several cardboard-or cellulose-based acoustic panels.…”

Cardboard-based packaging components represent a material that has significant potential as a renewable source for exploitation in buildings. This study presents the results of thermal and environmental analyses of existing packaging materials compared with standard conventional thermal insulations. Experimental measurements were performed to identify the thermal performance of studied cardboard packaging materials. Real-size samples were experimentally tested in laboratory measurements. The thermal resistance and conductivity of all the analyzed samples were measured according to the procedure indicated in the ISO8032 standard. A life-cycle assessment according to ISO 14040 was also performed to evaluate the environmental impacts related to the production of these materials. The results show that cardboard panels are a material with thermal and environmental properties on par with contemporary thermal insulations. Depending on their structure, the measured thermal conductivity varies from 0.05 to 0.12 W·m -1 ·K -1 and their environmental impacts are much lower than those of polyisocyanurate foam or mineral wool.

“…Hence Table 4 shows that the MOCI was the most suitable index to evaluate outdoor thermal comfort and the influence of urban materials [60][61][62] on microclimate in the studied area, followed by thermo-physiological indices as the PMV and PET. Lower total values were measured for the ET and ASV EUROPE .…”

Thermal Perception in the Mediterranean Area: Comparing the Mediterranean Outdoor Comfort Index (MOCI) to Other Outdoor Thermal Comfort Indices

et al. 2016

Abstract:Outdoor thermal comfort is an essential factor of people's everyday life and deeply affects the habitability of outdoor spaces. However the indices used for its evaluation were usually developed for indoor environments assuming still air conditions and absence of solar radiation and were only later adapted to outdoor spaces. For this reason, in a previous study the Mediterranean Outdoor Comfort Index (MOCI) was developed, which is an empirical index able to estimate the thermal perception of people living in the Mediterranean area. In this study it was compared numerically (by using the data obtained through a field survey) with other selected thermal indices. This comparison, performed in terms of Spearman's rho correlation coefficient, association Gamma, percentage of correct predictions and cross-tabulation analysis, led to identify the MOCI as the most suitable index to examine outdoor thermal comfort in the interested area. As a matter of fact it showed a total percentage of correct predictions of 35.5%. Good performances were reported even in thermophysiological indices as the Physiological Equivalent Temperature (PET) and Predicted Mean Vote (PMV). Moreover it was revealed that adaptation and acclimatization phenomena tend to have a certain influence as well.

This study focuses on composite cardboard panels, determining their mechanical properties. The panels were manufactured of a minced waste-paper-based composite material. First, four types of mixture were prepared using minced-material composite cardboards with different ratios of polyethylene (PE). Second, the mixtures were compressed and heated in a mold, and then a composite cardboard panel (CCP), 7-mm thick, was produced. In the third stage, tensile, three-point-bending, nail-pulling and water-absorption tests were applied to specimens of different CCPs. Mechanical tests were conducted using a tensile testing machine in accordance with ASTM 1037. In this study, the mechanical behaviors of the CCPs associated with the added PE were investigated. Observations showed that the presence of PE enhanced the mechanical strength of the CCPs and resulted in an increase in the nail-pulling-load and water-absorption resistance. The investigation was extended to conventional wooden panels (oriented strand board and fiberboard), which were exposed to the same tests. The experimental data demonstrated that the strength of the new product was higher than that of the conventional wooden panels. The results suggest that CCPs can be used as an alternative to wooden panels.V{tudiji so se avtorji osredoto~ili na kompozitne kartonske panele (plo{~e) in dolo~itev njihovih mehanskih lastnosti. Paneli so bili izdelani iz sesekljanega oz. narezanega kompozitnega materiala na osnovi odpadnega papirja. Najprej so izdelali {tiri vrste me{anic iz sesekljanega kartona in razli~no koli~ino polietilena (PE). Me{anice so nato stisnili, segreli in oblikovali v 7 mm debele kompozitne kartonske plo{~e (CCP). Iz izdelanih kompozitnih kartonskih plo{~so izrezali preizku{ance za trito~kovni upogibni preizkus, trgalni preizkus in preizkus absorpcije vode. Mehanske preizkuse so izvedli na univerzalnem trgalnem stroju v skladu s standardom ASTM 1037. Analize preizkusov so pokazale, da dodatek polietilena izbolj{a mehansko trdnost izdelanih kompozitov in pove~a njihovo odpornost proti absorpciji vode. Raziskavo so avtorji dodatno raz{irili {e na testiranje lesenih kompozitnih panelov (iz sekancev in vlaken). Nove kompozitne kartonske plo{~e imajo v primerjavi s konvencionalnimi lesenimi plo{~ami ve~jo trdnost, zato bi se lahko uporabljale kot njihova alternativa. Klju~ne besede: kompozitni materiali, mehanske lastnosti, polimer, obdelava odpadkov, recikliranje
