Photocatalytic activity of white cement-based mortars with polysiloxane silicone and different doses of titanium dioxide nanoparticles

White cement-based mortars in urban areas are usually discolored and altered their esthetic properties due to air pollutants. The addition of nanoparticles in these mortars can provide photocatalytic properties that can decompose pollution agents. Likewise, other hydrophobic agents have been individ...
