Özet
It is known that people generally spend 90% of their time indoors. Therefore, indoor air quality is a major concern for many people. Building materials play an important role in indoor air quality. Therefore, this study evaluates the role of building materials in IAQ by conducting a bibliometric analysis of articles from the Web of Science Core Collection and utilizing VOSviewer software to analyze publications from 2010 to 2023, focusing on the citation, year, country, and keywords co-occurrence. The analysis reveals key trends and gaps in the literature, highlighting the predominance of specific materials and pollutants. It also highlights that variability in building parameters makes attributing pollution sources difficult and underlines the need for context-specific assessments. These findings underscore the critical need to prioritize IAQ in building design and management to ensure safe and healthy indoor environments. This study manifests by methodologically mapping the research landscape on building materials and IAQ, guiding future empirical research.
