Abstract

Granite coated tiles offer excellent mechanical properties for cladding applications. But, as with any application in the housing field, the question of their durability arises. The durability study and the alkaline degradation process of the cementitious medium were undertaken in this work to evaluate the effect of granite and marble coating on the substrate. The mixture of the constituents with different characteristics results in a material whose properties will vary depending on the density of each constituent. For this purpose, the bilayer materials were subjected to different chemical attacks such as concentrated solutions of strong and weak acids and strong bases and the resistance to chemical attack of the samples immersed in each of these solutions is evaluated according to ASTM C 267-96. The results obtained show that before 7 days of immersion, the bilayer materials and the mortar increase their capacity to resist the attack solutions. As for 35 days of immersion, the mass losses are 9.49%, 40.63%, 3.48% for the mortar; 3.81%, 18.51%, 1.07% for the granite bilayer materials and 10.44%, 22.62% 2.94% for the marble bilayer materials in HCl solutions. This study also highlights the alkaline degradation affecting the interface of bilayer materials and it is found that hydrated cement releases basic substances, which react with acidic solutions to give salts easily soluble in water.
