Abstract

The kinetics of water absorption by samples taken from facades of buildings (marbled footinglimestone, bricks, plaster), both in initial state, those treated with solutions of classical water repellentsand new hydrophilic and hydrophobic colloid silicates, was studied, and the state of the initial materialwas assessed. Recommendations on how to stabilize stone and protect it from the destructive influence of the humid atmosphere are given.
