Mejoramiento de la adhesión, durabilidad y desempeño térmico de revestimientos en muros de adobe a través del diseño de morteros con adiciones de materiales orgánicos.

Abstract

Abstract: The project is carried out to propose new techniques and materials to improve the durability of the adobe coating, for which it is proposed uses of organic materials for the elaboration of a new mortar. The project is carried out in different stages, research, diagnosis and finally with experimentation, in which adhesion, thermal conductivity and durability tests are applied, applied in homes located in sectors of the Chaguarpamba canton, checking the reaction of the sample to climatic factors and verify the maximum probability of its durability. This confirmation is achieved through tests on small samples of coating, which after applying it, the representative sample with the best characteristics is chosen to verify its durability and improvement of its technical properties, being the proposed mortar of bagasse sugar with beeswax finish. After carrying out the tests, it was determined that the proposed mortar (earth with cane bagasse and beeswax finish), surpasses traditional mortars in the most important aspects such as durability, adhesions and thermal conductivity.
