Resumo: Natural fibers are attracting the interest of engineering sectors owing to specific advantages such as lightweight and lower cost as well as an inherent condition of being renewable, biodegradable, recyclable and environmentally correct with respect to CO2 emission. In addition, several natural fibers present mechanical and thermal properties appropriate for engineering applications. The fiber extracted from the stem of the banana plant is nowadays recognized by its mechanical properties. However, some thermal properties of the banana fibers have not yet been fully investigated. The present work investigated, by photoacoustic spectroscopy and photothermal techniques, the thermal diffusivity, specific heat capacity and thermal conductivity of the banana fiber. The results revealed that the banana fibers showed a promising thermal insulation capacity, comparable to those of conventional synthetic insulators.
