Abstract

In recent years, the interest in developing and assessing protective coatings for the safeguard of Street Art has increased. Considering the complex formulations of spray paints used for these artworks, the study of their degradation phenomena when exposed to atmospheric agents (relative humidity, temperature, UV-light, corrosive gases) is still not fully understood. Within the framework of the SuperStar project, we present a state-of-the-art research and a preliminary investigation to select specific protective coatings, to be tested in the laboratory and on real case studies, and assess their stability and compatibility with the substrate.
