Perovskite (PV) is one of 32 materials in this atlas, grouped under advanced: history, structure, measured properties, process routes, uses, safety and market — not a product catalogue.
Scores compare Perovskite (PV) with the rest of the atlas on strength, heat, fire behaviour, insulation, workability and circularity. They are editorial, not certificates.
Seven chapters follow. Fire and insulation claims name test families (Euroclass, ASTM E84, ISO 5660, KS F) rather than inventing a single safety number.
Deep introduction
Deep dive: Perovskite (PV)
Perovskite (PV) (ABX3 (e.g. CH3NH3PbI3)) is a family of grades whose density thin-film, heat band soft lattices; heat-sensitive, and fire letter device, not a building class.
What “the material” actually is
Perovskite (PV) is sold as grades, not as a single substance. Chemistry ABX3 (e.g. CH3NH3PbI3), density thin-film, heat band soft lattices; heat-sensitive.
This atlas treats Perovskite (PV) as a system: mill route, coatings, tests and the cavity it sits in.
Heat, fire and insulation
Conductivity note: modest; not an insulator product. Insulation score 8/100 is relative to 32 entries — metals lose, VIPs and aerogels win.
Fire letter in editorial use: device, not a building class. Do not equate A1 with “safe in a blaze” or E with “illegal”. Assemblies decide.
How it is made and used
Origin: Miyasaka 2009 DSSC; 2012 solid-state jump, Japan / Oxford / Korea. The process chapter follows feedstock → conversion → forming → finish → install.
Uses span buildings to defence / safety. Pairings matter: graphene.
Market and circularity
Producers below are landmarks, not an endorsement ranking. Prices are bands, not live quotes.
Circularity mark 40/100. Ask which scrap, which certificate, which year.

Where is it specified?
Buildings, transport, energy and consumer goods — see the uses chapter.
Is the fire-performance score a building-code rating?
No. It is an editorial 0–100 teaching mark among materials in this atlas. A real wall or garment needs a named product test, thickness and assembly. This page is not a lab stamp.
When should I read insulation instead of fire?
Use the insulation pick when the question is heat flow — lining, loft, or a cold-bridge — and the fire pick when the question is how the same material behaves in flame. Both numbers already sit on this hub; they answer different jobs.
Does a high sustainability score mean I can skip fire protection?
No. Sustainability here is a relative atlas mark (growth, reuse, embodied story). Bamboo and timber can still char like wood. Fire protection stays a separate specification.
Why is bamboo missing in some languages?
A language URL is published only when the seven chapters are real prose in that language. Bamboo exists in English, Korean, Japanese, Chinese and Spanish. French, German, Portuguese and Russian stay withheld — earlier machine drafts leaked English, so those URLs are not opened.
