Abstract:
The present invention relates to a white or colored cementitious mixture for the manufacture of micro-concrete or normal concrete, mortar or pastes with thermochromatic properties, i.e., changing its color depending on the temperature at which the material is exposed. This color change is reversible after some time of exposure to another level of temperature. This cementitious mixture comprises the following components, in percentage in weight of the components relative to the total weight of the composition: a) 35-80% of white or gray Portland cement; b) 0.1-30% of finely ground limestone filler; c) 0.01-3% of powdered super-plasticizer; d) 0.01-3% of modified polyvinyl resins; e) 0.01-5% of dispersant of vinyl acetate and ethylene copolymers; f) 0.3-15% of encapsulated photochromic copolymers; and also one or more components selected from: g) 1-10% of binding regulator; h) 0.1-4% of zinc stearate; i) 1-20% of metakaolins; j) 5-60% of artificial pozzolans; k) 0.1-15% of inorganic pigments.
