Cork is a commonly employed material for bottle stoppers, especially wine bottles. Cork material is composed of suberin, which is a hydrophobic substance. Key properties of cork material include high buoyancy, elasticity, and flame retardancy. Cork’s bubble form structure and natural fire retardant property make it suitable for acoustic and thermal insulation in house walls, floors, ceilings, and facades. The raw material for cork products is harvested from the cork oak tree. Production of compound agglomerated cork involves the addition of binders or adhesive agents such as asphalt, rubber, gypsum, glue, and plastic to cork granules.
