Abstract |
A mycelium-based bio-composite is composed of fungal mycelia and natural fibers. This type of material is also used in the architecture and design industry. In this study, it aims to choose 4 types of local mushroom species (Pleurotus ostreatus, Lentinus polychrous, Lentinula edodes, and Flammulina velutipe) and two types of substrates (coconut husk and rice husk) to test the growth of the mushroom mycelia and form 3-dimensional bio-composites. There were two different experiments, the measurement of the mushroom growth in the substrates in test tubes and the formation of the 3D bio-composites. In the first experiment, it suggested that P. ostreatus grew on the coconut husk (5.6 ± 0.53 cm at day 15) significantly better than the others (p≤0.05). On contrary, the mycelial growth of all mushrooms in the rice husk was not satisfying because they stopped growing after day 4. Thus, in the test tubes, it can be said the coconut husk was the substrate significantly better than the rice husk to grow the mushrooms (p≤0.05). However, to form the 3D bio-composites, the result turned out to be different. L. polychrous was the mushroom species that could grow and colonize in the bottles containing rice husk better than the others. Thus, the successful formation of 3D mycelial bio-composite was from the combination of L. polychrous and rice husk. This research provided the results for further experiments on large-scale 3D bio-composite production and mechanical properties tests. |
