The biophilic and Mediterranean mortar for the architecture of comfort.
Diathonite Thermactive .037 is an innovative bio-mortar that embodies the formulary synthesis of sustainable comfort and the material representation of the recovery and modernization of the Mediterranean Building tradition.
A potential for use that allows for high-potential architectural effects is linked to the choice of sanding the bio-mortar and leaving it exposed to create a particular tactile effect, enhancing the neutral color of the cork.
The insulating action of air
Diathonite Thermactive .037, thanks to cork and other high-porosity materials, makes the air filling the cells the best natural thermal insulation. We leverage nature's talent.
Thermal Conductivity:
λ = 0,037 W/mK
Thanks to the mix of carefully selected natural raw materials, the product achieves extremely high thermal insulation performance.
Thermal Diffusivity:
α = 0,1 x 10⁻⁶ m²/s
The low diffusivity value indicates a high level of insulation from heat, thus ensuring thermal comfort and savings on summer cooling.
Breathability:
μ = 3
Walls free to breathe. Thanks to high permeability, indoor humidity is perfectly balanced, preventing mold and condensation.
Density:
ρ = 250 ± 15% kg/m³
The macroporous structure makes the product lighter than traditional plaster. Its performance in terms of insulation and absorption of excess humidity is guaranteed.
Porosity:
71%
The macroporous structure with high air content guarantees excellent performance in terms of insulation and absorption of excess humidity.
Compressive Strength:
2,8 N/mm²
High compressive strength capable of giving the wall greater consistency and stability.
