Brick Efflorescence

Brick Efflorescence is a phenomenon in construction materials science wherein soluble salts migrate to the surface of brick units, forming a visible crystalline deposit as a result of water evaporation, thereby distinguishing it from other forms of masonry degradation by its specific mechanism of salt exudation and reprecipitation.
