The wettability of clay roofing tiles as a surface phenomenon plays a key  role considering their deterioration process during exploitation. The  experimental investigations in this paper were performed combining the data  of the material-relevant parameters and the surface wetting properties in  order to assess clay roofing tiles biodurability. The fungus Aspergillusniger  was used as a model microorganism whose colonization and growth, during a  period of 28 days on the tiles fired at two temperatures (900 and 1020ºC),  was analyzed. The paper confirms that the colonization of the tiles with the  fungus goes through two stages: up to the 18th day, based on the surface  characteristics, and after the 18th day when the textural characteristics  (values of water absorption) are the dominant parameters

Relationship among the firing temperature, wetting properties and colonization of fungi on clay roofing tile surfaces
