Combined Effect of Superabsorbent Polymers and Cellulose Fibers on Functional Performance of Plasters

Original language description

Plaster has, from ancient times, been used as a decorative material. However, the advances in materials engineering such as thermal and moisture control provide new opportunities. Superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) have been found to possess passive moisture control that may find utilization in modern buildings. However, the main drawback is associated with a limited number of applicable SAPs due to mechanical strength loss. In this regard, concurrent utilization of cellulose fibers may provide additional benefits linked with the reinforcing of plaster structure and preservation of superior hygric properties. In this regard, this study investigates the combined effect of SAP and cellulose fibers on the material properties of cement-lime plaster in terms of its mechanic, thermal, and hygric properties. To access the capability of such modified plasters to control the interior moisture fluctuations, the moisture buffering value is determined. Obtained results show the effect of both applied admixtures on material performance, whilst the synergic effect was most obvious for humidity control accessed through the moisture buffer coefficient.
