  • Abstract
    Heating costs in winter and in summer cooling costs in the world is very high. To reduce heating costs in winter and cooling costs in summer are building insulation. Although sunflower production in Turkey carried out a significant amount, however they emerged after the production of sunflower stem is a serious problem for farmers. Sunflower stem from farm houses to be cleaned or burned or used for temporary heating purposes. This type of use is causing serious problems in the environment. Sunflower stalk, cotton textile waste, such as stubble, and a composite material produced by evaluating the landfill waste. This is considered to be important in terms of heating costs. TS 825 predicted to be material factor insulation than 0.1 must be in small. In press load increase, a portion of the linker and an amount of escaping out of the connector in the mold with respect to the binder mixture dragging causes impoverishment and the binder being dropped. Set out in the findings, research materials selected sunflower stalk, cotton - textile wastes and stubble shows that it is possible to produce insulation materials enough to mix it with epoxy.
