Miselyum Kompozitlerinin Sürdürülebilir Yapı Malzemesi Olarak Kullanımı

Dünyanın sınırlı kaynakları bilinçsiz tüketim alışkanlıklarımız nedeniyle hızla tükenmekte, doğa hızla yok edilmekte ve canlılar her geçen gün daha fazla tehlike altına girmektedir. Bugün tüm dünyanın ortak sorunu olan Küresel Isınma, bu nedenlerle ortaya çıkmış ve giderek daha ciddi bir sorun haline gelmektedir. Bu nedenle insanoğlu doğayla mücadele etmek yerine ona uyum sağlamak zorunda olduğunu fark etmiş ve bazı doğa dostu arayışlara yönelmiştir. İnsanoğlu, gezegenimizin doğasına zarar vermeyen üretim-tüketim alışkanlıklarını daha fazla akılda tutmak zorundadır. Örneğin sanayi ve inşaat sektöründe sıklıkla kullanılan plastik, metal ve beton gibi malzemeler yerine doğa dostu malzemeler teşvik edilmelidir. Bu çevreci hareketin bir sonucu olarak öne çıkan çeşitli doğa dostu malzemelerden biri de miselyumdur. Bu çalışmada, çevreci arayışlara katkı sağlamak ve ilgililere kaynak yaratmak amacıyla mantar esaslı miselyum tanıtılmış ve daha sonra özellikle inşaat sektöründe kullanım alanları, fiziksel ve mekanik özellikleri, avantaj ve dezavantajları detaylı olarak anlatılmıştır.

Use of Mycelium Composits as Sustainable Structure Materials

The limited resources of the world are rapidly consumed because of our unconscious consumption habits, nature is rapidly being destroyed and living things are getting in danger more day and day. Global Warming, which is the common issue of the whole world today, has emerged because of these reasons and is becoming an increasingly more serious problem. So, human beings have realized that they have to adapt to it, instead of struggling with nature, and they have turned to nature-friendly searches. Human beings must keep in mind more the production-consumption habits that doesn’t harm to nature of our planet. For example, instead of materials such as plastic, metal and concrete, which are frequently used in industry and construction sector, nature-friendly materials should be encouraged. One of the various nature-friendly materials that come to the fore as a result of this environmentalist movement is mycelium. In this study, fungal-based mycelium was introduced in order to contribute to environmentalist searches and to create resources for those concerned, and then its usage areas, physical and mechanical properties, advantages and disadvantages, especially in the construction sector, were explained in detail.
