No.9（2014）13.Proposition of a speedier evaluation method for humidity conditioned architectural materials
Saori Ikeda, Kazuhiko Hirai, Hidemi Koyama
In this study, an investigation has been made on a new method for evaluating humidity conditioned architectural materials to reduce evaluation time and cost. A formula has been introduced to approximate the behavior of moisture absorption and desorption of materials. The parameters for the formula could be experimentally determined and was useful to compare the sorption speed and amount between the materials. Based on the variation in the adsorption amount, the equilibrium time when the experimental value agreed with the calculation was determined. The equilibrium time was successfully reduced by this method compared to that existing in JIS A 1475.
