Environmental Active Materials Based on Natural Clays toward Quality of Internal Microclimate
Original language description
High quality of internal microclimate is one of the crucial requirements on high performance and sustainable buildings. The main goal of advanced building concepts is to achieve this quality while minimizing the energy consumption both in operation and construction phase. Clay minerals according to their specific mineralogical composition can help to improve the quality of internal microclimate due to their excellent hygroscopic properties. The structures based on natural clay can be used as a storage for interior moisture and can keep the required level of internal relative humidity suitable (40-60 %RH) without any additional energy demand. This paper summarizes the latest results of laboratory experiments of different building materials based on natural clay from the point of view of sorption properties. Numerical simulation using achieved laboratory results shows potential of using clay to improve quality of internal microclimate.
