Abstract

Ca(OH)₂ is a well-known commercial inorganic consolidation material, which is used to restore tomb murals. Herein, nano-Ca(OH)₂ with a high specific surface grown by molecular confinement method was supported with photocatalyst Ag/g-C₃N₄ to form a highly permeable Ag/g-C₃N₄/Ca(OH)₂, which achieved consolidation and antibacterial properties of simulated murals. Ag/g-C₃N₄/Ca(OH)₂ forms a unique gradient permeation structure on tomb murals. In this structure, the Ca(OH)₂ nanomaterial penetrates deeply, while the Ag/g-C₃N₄-rich layers remain on the mural surfaces. The Ag/g-C₃N₄-rich layer effectively protects the murals from bacteria. The results indicate that the Ag/g-C₃N₄/Ca(OH)₂ nanocomposite significantly enhances the mural's strength and antibacterial properties when the silver ion doping content is 0.24. Its strengthening performance is 2 times higher than commercial Ca(OH)₂, while its antibacterial rate reaches 58.38 %, primarily due to its high permeability and stability. Further aging experiments indicate that the synthesized Ag_0.24/g-C₃N₄/Ca(OH)₂ nanocomposite has no adverse effect on the mural's pigment layer. This work offers a new method for developing effective materials to protect tomb murals.
