“…Researchers have focused intensely on coating materials and pore blockers, in their studies, in the last decade . Although they form an impervious barrier on the surface of concrete, they lock moisture inside the concrete, if they were used in wet conditions, leading to continuous degradation of their protective layer, by the vapor formed inside concrete and internal vapor pressure .…”

“…Additionally, they resist the penetration of liquid water, vapor transfer, ultraviolet (UV) radiation, and alkalinity (Morais, 2019 [17]). When comparing PVA and acrylic paints, the pigment volume content (PVC), representing the volume of pigment in the dry paint film relative to the total volume of the dry film [18], may be responsible for variations in properties. Higher PVC results in increased permeability and reduces gloss in the paint film [18].…”

“…Seven different paint configurations were investigated, including PVA latex, matte acrylic, silicate, and lime-based paints readily available in the Brazilian market. In the case of acrylic paints, the focus was on matte finishing due to the probable higher PVC than satin acrylic paints [18]. This detailed approach aims to significantly contribute to the practices of maintenance and conservation of historic facades, addressing different suppliers and application methods that respect and preserve the heritage value of buildings.…”
