Capillary impregnation of permeable porous materials is used in many modern technologies and, despite the large experimental material, it is of certain scientific interest. Experimental results of long-term water impregnation of porous bodies of various structures are presented in the article. Studies were performed with 17 samples of different weights. Impregnation was carried out with distilled water at atmospheric pressure. The end time of the impregnation process for each sample was determined individually. The duration of the experiment ranged from 7 to 150 days.Experiments confirm characteristic feature of this process described in literary sources. Indeed, at time points of approximately 102 min, a significant slowdown in the rise of the saturation curve is observed, which can be taken as the end of the process. However, further observations showed that the impregnation does not end at this stage and, over time, it resumes. In this case, final rate of saturation can be much greater than the rate obtained at the first stage. A general analytical expression for describing the process of water saturation for any structures of the tested samples was obtained, whichindicates a similarity of fluid movement in the pore channel system. Approximation of the experimental data by logarithmic function gives a good result of analytical representation of the process. It is also shown that the theoretical approaches used make it possible to obtain water saturation curves for great periods of time with good accuracy.A general analytical expression was obtained to describe the process of water saturation independent of the structure of the porous space of the test samples, which indicates similarity in the movement of fluid in the system of pore channels.
