Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for suppressing mold formation on building parts using hydrophobic substances, wherein a dispersion of hydrophobic particles having a mean particle diameter of from 0.005 to 5 μm in an organic dispersant is applied to the surface to be protected from mold attack and the dispersant is then removed, and to a composition for building parts which inhibits mold growth and comprises from 0.1 to 10% by weight of hydrophobic particles having a mean particle diameter of from 0.005 to 5 μm dispersed in an organic dispersant.
Claims13
A method for suppressing mold formation on building parts using hydrophobic substances, comprising
- applying a dispersion to the surface of the part to be protected from mold attack;
- and
- removing the dispersant,
- wherein the dispersion comprises an organic dispersant comprising hydrophobic particles comprising a mean particle diameter of from 0.005 to 5 μm.
A composition for building parts which inhibits mold growth, characterized in that it comprises from 0.1 to 10% by weight of hydrophobic particles comprising a mean particle diameter of from 0.005 to 5 μm dispersed in an organic dispersant.
