The results of selected characteristics (compressive strength and coefficient of thermal conductivity) of hardened composites show that MgO cement based on the milled caustic magnesite is suitable alternative in comparison to conventional binders used in hemp concrete. This material leads to new environmentally products as non-load bearing building materials.展开更多
