The experimental determination of dynamic mass transfer properties of porous materials such as eco-efficient clay plasters is greatly influenced by the convective conditions at the surface of the material during the test. The measurement of the intrinsic vapour permeability of highly porous materials has shown to present wide discrepancies when the surface film resistance is not known. Therefore,...
The feasibility of building with earth in the same and simple way as cement-based concrete has been demonstrated as an environmental-friendly alternative. Sodium alginate, a bio-sourced polymer, is used to induce a liquid–solid transition to a clay based suspension, similar to hydraulic binders. The polymer gelation occurs via calcium ions released from the binding phase through a gentle acidification...
