Consolidation of Carrara Marble by Hydroxyapatite and Behaviour After Thermal Ageing

Sassoni, Enrico / Franzoni, Elisa

In this study, the use of hydroxyapatite (HAP), recently proposed for limestone consolidation, was investigated on unweathered and artificially weathered Carrara marble and the behaviour of HAP-treated samples towards thermal weathering was evaluated, by means of an accelerated thermal weathering test. The results of the study indicate that HAP is a very promising consolidant for marble, able to significantly improve mechanical properties without substantially altering pore size distribution and to provide some mitigation against thermal weathering.
