Abstract
The fulfilment of the requirements of the Carta del Restauro (1972) still gives rise to several problems, as far as materials and technologies for architectural restoration are concerned. As a matter of fact, currently used materials often exhibit poor compatibility with the ancient substrates, or scarce effectiveness, or unsatisfactory long-term performances, etc. Hence the setting up of new materials and technologies should be investigated, such as nanomaterials, composites, hybrid organic/inorganic binders, etc., for applications in restoration works (decayed stone consolidation, plasters re-adhesion, topping up of lacking or irrecoverably damage materials, art nouveau buildings restoration, etc.), in order to safeguard the architectural heritage in terms of both functionality and image.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
