μ (dry) Vapour diffusion resistance value

Water vapour diffusion resistance value for conditions assuming a dry state.

The diffusion resistance (μ value) is a parameter to determine the exchange of moisture of a construction material. The lower the μ value, the easier it is for vapour to penetrate a substance.

Definition: Ratio of the vapour diffusion coefficients of the air and that of the relevant substance.
