Producing New Stone Consolidants for the Conservation of Monumental Stones

MRS Proceedings, 2004
ABSTRACTA customary procedure in the protection of monumental buildings is the consolidation of decaying stone by the application of commercial products containing tetraethoxysilane (TEOS). These products polymerize within the porous structure of the decaying stone, significantly increasing the cohesion of the material. However, TEOS-based consolidants

Weathering and conservation of tuff stone

2020
<p>Tuff stone, a porous pyroclastic rock, is a light and soft material. Hence, tuff is easy to handle and to transport. It is used as construction material in numerous historical buildings. Due to its high water absorption and retention potential, heterogeneous pore structure, and clay mineral content, tuff is highly sensitive to
