Abstract

Cementitious materials, especially those exposed to outdoor conditions, are directly and continuously exposed to many atmospheric pollutants, (organic, inorganic and particulate matter), microorganisms (e.g., algae, fungi, cyanobacteria) and different weather conditions. As a result, they have an accelerated deterioration process which can produce in many cases important changes in the materials properties, among them aesthetic properties. Colour, for example, has to give a pleasant appearance that should give to the public an adequate perception of the quality and maintenance of buildings or structures. However, serious colour changes are produced on the buildings and structures due to the mineral composite nature of cementitious materials. The nature causes relatively high porosity and roughness, which enable the deposition of coloured organic pollutants or particulate matter and partially facilitate biological growth.
