Application of silicon nanodioxide in construction

The paper deals with the analysis of patent information concerning different forms of silicon nanodioxide and its use as modifying additive (in production of facade finishing materials and coverings). The invention can be applied in construction technologies for manufacturing nanomodified building paints, as well as finishing plaster mixtures on the basis of air and hydraulic binders. This makes it possible to expand manufacture of a new class of dry building and finishing mixtures and compositions ready to use. This also allows considerable changing of exterior appearance of buildings facades and increasing their durability.
