Dry deposition of dirt on building surface fouling
Dirt particles, pollutants or dusts often has its ways to get embedded onto a surface of a material, typically materials with rough surfaces. This undesired accumulation of dirt such as on building surfaces not only affects its aesthetic image but more importantly could result in the reduction of re...
