However, there is little research on the effectiveness of consolidating products and there is variability in the methods used. Some studies use acrylic resins like Paraloid® B72, while others evaluate inorganic consolidants like hydroxyapatite, but there are few published studies. This doctoral thesis focuses on evaluating the effectiveness of different consolidants on bones from the Pleistocene period, considering their specific characteristics and issues. Samples from Barranc de la Boella were selected for the evaluations. The bone diagenesis methodology was used to characterize the physicochemical properties and determine the need for consolidation. Different consolidants such as Acril® 33, Paraloid® B72, Nanorestore®, CaLoSil®, and diammonium hydrogenphosphate were evaluated. Changes in properties such as porosity, penetration capacity, and mechanical properties were studied, as well as the components formed after consolidation.
