Abstract
Provided are a structure and a method of forming a structure that includes a core made, at least in part, of a rice hull composition. The rice hull composition including a combination of separate, unground rice hulls; ground rice hulls; and a rice hull powder, that each have a different particle size. A polymeric binder, such as a recycled plastic polymeric binder binds the separated unground rice hulls, the ground rice hulls and the rice hull powder together.
Claims15
A structure comprising:
- a core comprising a rice hull composition formed from a combination of separate unground rice hulls, ground rice hulls and a rice hull powder, wherein the separated unground rice hulls, the ground rice hulls and the rice hull powder each comprises a different particle size;
- and
- a polymeric binder that binds the separated unground rice hulls, the ground rice hulls and the rice hull powder together,
- wherein the polymeric binder is selected from the group consisting of polyethylene, high density polyethylene, low density polyethylene, polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, nylon, polytetrafluoroethylene, polystyrene, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, fiber-reinforced plastic, and combinations thereof.
