Moisture properties of self-levelling flooring compounds. Part II. Sorption isotherms.
Author
Summary, in English
Moisture sorption in self-levelling flooring compounds was investigated by using a sorption balance. Results are presented as sorption isotherms. Influence of temperature, age, water to binder ratio and carbonation are also presented. An increased temperature and increased water to binder ratio gives lower moisture sorption. Results from scanning curves indicate that, when changing sorption mode, even a minute change in moisture content may result in a significant change in relative humidity in the material.
