The results obtained have shown that, the colophony acts as air entrainment, reduces the permeability and improves the adhesion between the past and aggregates. Likewise, the addition of tannin and montan wax to the colophony has the efect of reducing the formation of foam and improves the impermeability of the mortar.}, number={216}, journal={Materiales de Construcción}, author={Fernández Cánovas, M. and Hurtado Selva, N. and Kawiche, G.
