Abstract
Many specialists from all over the world occupied themselves with
the problem of efflorescence formation on concrete and on
concrete products. This problem is nearly as old as the
concrete itself. The fact that to this very day, the problems
of efflorescence formation course and of formed efflorescence
elimination is not yet clearly defined up to now, shows how
extensive and difficult is this task. This paper concerns
the problems of efflorescence formation on concrete and
concrete products depending on some conditions to which
the concrete is exposed.
KEYWORDS: concrete, concrete product, lime efflorescence, primary, secondary.
