Restoration success and the preservation of monuments

Natural stones are considered the oldest building materials of mankind. Due to the diversity of the basic building blocks and minerals, they are considered a durable building material with their superior aesthetic and robust structural-physical characteristics.
With risen environmental pollution worldwide in the last centuries and the associated weather factors, the damage to the natural stones and therefore the damage to historic basic structures of buildings also increased. But in fact, after an inspection is the maintenance and restoration relatively simple, but contrary to widespread opinion, is the preventive care and continuous inspection as a rule really cost-intensive for the responsible communities. In order to ensure an original restoration, must the historical buildings and the used materials for example mortar, chemically-technically as well as physically-technically be thoroughly defined. Here besides the chemical values like calcium, magnesium and the sulphate content even the acid-soluble and acid-insoluble shares play a decisive part. But even the ratio of the adhesive agent to the mortar plays for the composition of the mortar a true to the word supporting role. In regards to the physical examinations enables a possible original composition of the grain size curve, an exact statement about the materials and aggregates to be used.

The use of the Vibratory Micro Mill PULVERISETTE 0 is a gentle, time saving, reproducible and cost efficient alternative for all users which might want to combine – in certain conditions – a mechanical preparation (comminution / disagglomeration) as well as the separation method of sieving. This type of preparation is independent of all industry sectors and applies to the preparation of pharmaceutical products (tablets) as well as to the chemical industry or the preparation of carbon nanotubes.
