Fig. 1From: Mechanical, physical and thermal properties of composite materials produced with the basidiomycete Fomes fomentariusCompressive strength and thermal conductivity testing of fungal-based composite made of F. fomentarius and hemp shives. A Image of an exemplar specimen used for compressive and conductivity testing. B Stress–strain curves for all specimens with different height. C Compressive strength at 10% compression (δ10) as a function of the density of all specimens. D Thermal conductivity values determined for all specimens with different heightBack to article page
