Study on water vapour transport performance of expanded perlite insulation mortar under hygrothermal coupling

open access: yesMaterials Research Express
The water vapour transport performance of expanded perlite insulation mortar (EPIM) is highly susceptible to hygrothermal aging, yet the underlying transport mechanisms under different humidity conditions remain inadequately understood.
