You can check that on the web.Perlite is created by expanding raw material when manufactured, because it is heated to high temperatures to vaporize water and other components which creates a very low density, porous structure. It will not expand when wet.

It is best to avoid breathing it in. When working with perlite, it is safest to use a mask, but it also helps to be outside and to rinse the inside of the bag.
