Data Gathering

The data gathering process for this study will be methodically designed to address the outlined
objectives, employing both experimental and analytical methods.
Evaluation of Material Performance Properties
To determine the effectiveness of rice husk and corn husk insulation boards in terms of material
performance, the researchers will conduct laboratory testing on:
1. Fire resistance: Assessing the material’s ability to withstand high temperatures without
igniting.
2. Thermal Resilience: Measuring thermal conductivity and the material's capacity to
insulate against heat transfer.
3. Mechanical Strength: Evaluating the board’s durability under physical stress and load.
4. Water Absorption: Determining the rate at which the material absorbs moisture, which
is critical for practical applications.
Comparative Analysis with Traditional Insulation Materials
The insulation boards will be benchmarked against traditional insulation materials in terms of
performance, environmental impact, and cost. This comparison will be carried out using
standardized metrics and sustainability assessment tools, enabling the researchers to highlight the
advantages and limitations of rice husk and corn husk insulation boards.
Development of Production Methods
To identify optimal production methods, the researchers will experiment with various
combinations of:
• Binder Types: Testing different bonding agents to enhance durability and performance.
• Compaction Pressures: Evaluating the impact of varying pressure levels during
manufacturing on the board's properties.
• Rice Husk and Corn Husk Ratios: Testing different proportions to determine the most
effective formulation. Data will be collected to establish correlations between these factors and
the performance of the insulation boards.
Determination of Moisture Absorption Rate
The boards will undergo water absorption testing to measure their capacity to resist moisture.
This is crucial for ensuring the long-term effectiveness and durability of the material in practical
applications. Standardized water absorption tests will be used to generate reliable data.
This systematic approach to data gathering will provide comprehensive insights into the
effectiveness, sustainability, and production of rice husk and corn husk insulation boards,
addressing all research objectives thoroughly.
