Abstract
The possibility of utilizing sun-dried coconut (Cocos mucifera Linn.) husk and
pith obtained by wet reUlng for the production of thermal insulation boards
has been studied. Insulation boards prepared from different fractions of husk
and wet-retted pith under optimum conditions have been found to possess good
thermal insulating properties.
