Hygric properties and thermal conductivity of a new insulation material for building based on date palm concrete

•Porosity, water uptake and drying kinetics were investigated for date palm concrete.•Dry cup method for the measurement of water vapor permeability.•Sorption isotherm was determined for a wide range of relative humidity, and afterward moisture diffusivity evolution was obtained.•Thermal conductivit...
