Černý}, country = {}, institution = {}, abstract = {Experimental investigation of the effect of hydrophobic injection on siloxane basis on the properties of oldfashioned type of ceramic brick is presented in the paper. At the experimental testing, the matrix density, total open porosity, pore size distribution, sorptivity, water absorption coefficient, sorption and desorption isotherms are measured for the original, as well as the hydrophobic-injection treated brick. On the basis of measured data, the functionality of the hydrophobic injection for the moisture ingress prevention into the studied ceramic brick is assessed.}, journal = {International Journal of Materials and Metallurgical Engineering}, volume = {6}, number = {1}, year = {2012}, pages = {123 - 126}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/1942}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/61}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 61, 2012}, }
