Using advanced materials to remove the indoor VOCs (e.g. formaldehyde) passively.

Within the PM&VL6, the impact of the different multilayer dry building envelope systems on the overall acoustic performance is monitored through a dedicated sound meter.

Objective

The objective of the proposed acoustic tests is to assess the impact of different envelope solutions and components on the overall performance in the respective space of installation.

Scope of application

Sea water or breeze test is to determine the durability of the product performed by aging test caused by sea water or breeze. The innovative test procedure includes two aging methods:
1. For artificial aging in substitute ocean water, 18 immersion drying cycles are performed. Each cycle consists of 55 hours of immersion (a total of 1,000 hours in 18 cycles) and 112 hours of drying at 38°C (a total of 2,000 hours).
2. Immersion in alternative ocean water for 3000 h (Stefano De Santis, 2018).
