This study focuses on the development of an insulation biocomposite using Doum palm (Chamaerops humilis) fibers reinforced with a natural binder based citric acid and glycerol. The main objective is to optimize thermal conductivity mechanical properties as function fiber preparation (short or powdered fibers) content (20%, 30% 40%), relate them bonding binder. obtained results suggest that addition greatly enhances density, compressive strength Young’s modulus biocomposites. More specifically, 20% by weight acid/glycerol improves bond between fibers, whether they are short powders. leads increase in properties, reaching (212.1) MPa at (24.3) MPa. On other hand, show these biocomposites also have acceptable performance, achieving (0.102) W/(m·K), making suitable for variety applications sustainable buildings refurbishment.

The primary causes of global warming include human activities such as burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and certain agricultural practices that release greenhouse gases. To address this issue, a shift towards clean energy sources, improved efficiency, sustainable land use is necessary. Natural fiber insulation offers several benefits, including superior thermal acoustic performance, fire resistance, ease installation, making it environmentally responsible alternative to conventional materials. natural insulation, Washingtonia plant, has gained traction in building practices. Nonetheless, few researches have looked into plants potential insulators. This review highlights the physical, thermal, mechanical properties insulating materials based on plant fibres, well their application.
