Moisture content influence on the thermal conductivity of insulating building materials made from date palm fibers mesh

•Thermal conductivity and density of DPF-B and composite increase with water content.•Lightening the mortar by DPF mesh increases its thermal insulation capacity.•DPF-B and composite MDPF51% could be used as insulating materials in buildings.•Measured DPF-B and composite thermal conductivities are b...
