The method has been found to be effective and precise, allowing us to distinguish the depth of the zone with water-repellent characteristics from that with merely a consolidating effect. Se utilizan las medidas del ¨¢ngulo de contacto agua-piedra sobre la superficie de secciones de probetas de biocalcarenita, para evaluar la penetrabilidad de productos de restauraci¨®n org¨¢nicos y silicoorg¨¢nicos en esta roca. El m¨¦todo se revela como eficaz y preciso, permitiendo discriminar la profundidad de la zona con caracter¨ªsticas hidr¨®fugas de aqu¨¦lla exclusivamente consolidada. %U http://materconstrucc.revistas.csic.es/index.php/materconstrucc/article/view/387/433
