  1. Hi admin,

    I read your blog, Its really awesome, I have also a blog which is related with you, which is about scatterometry.
    There are two types one is a thick brown or black tar-like material used for waterproofing places like the inside of gutters; the other is an emulsion and is used for concrete or roofs.
    The inert materials reduce erosion of paint film by the weather and till fine cracks.
    scatterometry
    Thanks,
