TLDR
In this paper, an acrylate-based copolymer emulsion (ACE) was used for wall coatings with humidity controlling functions, and showed a large capacity for water absorption (274%), increasing indoor humidity and dehumidification in dry or moist environments.About:

Toughening improvement to a soybean meal-based bioadhesive using an interpenetrating acrylic emulsion network
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used triglycidylamine (TGA) cross-linking with an acrylic emulsion interpenetrating network (IPN) to improve the water resistance of soybean meal-based (SM) bioadhesive and enhance the mechanical properties of the bonded plywood.

Waterborne polyurethane-acrylic copolymers crosslinked core–shell nanoparticles for humidity-sensitive coatings
TL;DR: In this article, a crosslinked core-shell emulsion of waterborne polyurethane-acrylic copolymers (PUA) was successfully synthesized by emulsion polymerization.

Synthesis and characterization of low-temperature self-crosslinkable acrylic emulsion for PE film ink
TL;DR: In this article, a low-temperature self-crosslinkable acrylic emulsion was synthesized by semi-continuous emulsion polymerization technology using methyl methacrylate (MMA), butyl acrylate, acrylic acid (AA), and diacetone acrylamide (DAAM) as monomers and adipic dihydrazide (ADH) as crosslinker.

An overview of polymer latex film formation and properties.
TL;DR: Surfactant-free homopolymer model colloid latices, favoured in academic studies, together with latices containing surfactants whose redistribution can influence film properties, and the more complex copolymer, blended, core-shell and pigmented systems needed to satisfy a full range of film properties are all considered.

Dampness in buildings as a risk factor for health effects, EUROEXPO: a multidisciplinary review of the literature (1998-2000) on dampness and mite exposure in buildings and health effects
Carl-Gustaf Bornehag,Jan Sundell,Sergio Bonini,Adnan Custovic,Per Malmberg,Staffan Skerfving,Torben Sigsgaard,A Verhoeff +7 more
TL;DR: There is good evidence for a true association between dampness in buildings and health, but the causative factors behind this association are not known and the main focus in practical investigations should be on finding out and remediate the reasons for the humidity problem.

The dichotomy of relative humidity on indoor air quality.
Peder Wolkoff,Søren K. Kjærgaard +1 more
TL;DR: The recommendation that IAQ should be "dry and cool" may be useful for evaluation of the immediately perceived IAQ in material emission testing, but should be considered cautiously about the development of irritation symptoms in eyes and upper airways during a workday.

Analysis of indoor humidity environment in Chinese residential buildings
Huibo Zhang,Hiroshi Yoshino +1 more
TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors carried out a field measurement survey on indoor thermal environment in nine Chinese cities and developed a database of actual indoor humidity conditions for moisture moderate design, through which the characteristics of indoor humidity environment in Chinese residential houses can be identified and clarified.

Physiological and Subjective Responses to Low Relative Humidity in Young and Elderly Men
TL;DR: It is suggested that to avoid dryness of the eyes and skin, it is necessary to maintain greater than 30% RH, and to avoid wetness in the nasal mucous membrane, it has to be maintained greater than 10% RH.
