Moisture Equilibrium and Migration in Building Materials
Factors influencing the moisture content of a variety of building materials in equilibrium with their thermal and moisture environments are discussed. Reference is made to forces potentials, energies, pore structure, surface area, and hysteresis. The usefulness of the suction concept in dealing with moisture at conditions close to saturation and of the relationship of the suction scale to relative humidity is discussed. The second part of the paper introduces a discussion of moisture migration under isothermal steady-state conditions, and indicates the complications inherent in the nonisothermal case. (Author)
