Abstract

Since the year 1973 the work to conserve the wall paintings in Cappadocia region has been in progress and in this process various types of commercial and non-commercial injection grouts have been used and are being used. The commercial and non-commercial injection grouts that are presently used in the conservation of wall paintings may have some disadvantages both in terms of their properties as well as performances.
