Development of metal-alkoxides precursors for conservation nanomaterials: the EU project NANOMATCH

Deterioration of historic building materials has become more and more important since climate change has worsened the natural decay and the impact of atmospheric pollution. On the basis of these premises, the three-year European Collaborative Project NANOMATCH addresses this issue through the development of innovative consolidants specifically designed to meet the requirements of the historic building substrates, especially focusing on stone, wall paintings, wood and glass, and integrated in high performance products to renovate the market dedicated to the conservation of the built heritage.
