Original Abstract
The paper describes the results of a research focused on the development of natural thermal and acoustic insulation materials. They are mainly materials based on locally available agricultural waste (mainly in the third-world countries). In particular, this waste includes stems of rice and other plants. The paper describes the behaviour of these materials under different humidity conditions and the possibility to influence their properties by varying the ratio between organic and inorganic binders. Using the results, general conditions for the suitability of the application of these materials in building constructions were defined.
