2. Epoxy moisture control system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epoxy_moisture_control_system

   Epoxy moisture control systems are chemical barriers that are used to prevent moisture damage to flooring. Excessive moisture vapor emissions in concrete slabs can mean significant, expensive damage to a flooring installation. Hundreds of millions of dollars are spent annually just in the United States to correct moisture-related problems in ...

3. Vapor barrier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor_barrier

   A vapor barrier on the warm side of the envelope must be combined with a venting path on the cold side of the insulation. This is because no vapor barrier is perfect, and because water may get into the structure, typically from rain. In general, the better the vapor barrier and the drier the conditions, the less venting is required. [7]

4. Building insulation material - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_insulation_material

   Foil or "reflective foil laminate"s (RFL). Foil-faced polyurethane or foil-faced polyisocyanurate panels. Foil-faced polystyrene. This laminated, high density EPS is more flexible than rigid panels, works as a vapor barrier, and works as a thermal break. Uses include the underside of roof sheathing, ceilings, and on walls.

5. Structural insulated panel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_insulated_panel

   When tested under laboratory conditions, the SIP, included in a wall, foundation, floor, or roof system, is installed in a steady-state (no air infiltration) environment; systems incorporating fiberglass insulation are not installed in steady-state environments as they require ventilation to remove moisture.

   Knowing where to install vinyl and laminate can ensure your floors last as long as possible. Thanks to its resistance to water, vinyl is best used in moisture-prone areas like kitchens, bathrooms ...

7. Moisture vapor transmission rate - Wikipedia

   The building materials industry also manages the moisture barrier properties in architectural components to ensure the correct moisture levels in the internal spaces of buildings. Optoelectronic devices based on organic material, generally named OLEDs , need an encapsulation with low values of WVTR to guarantee the same performances over the ...
