Traditional organic additives improve lime mortars: New old materials for restoration and building natural stone fabrics

TL;DR: In this paper, six types of lime mortar were formulated and characterized, including compressive strength, water-resistance, carbonation speed, porosity, texture and mineral composition, which can be used in the restoration of architectural heritage and modern architecture where natural stone is used.
