Printing papers published in between 1950's and 1990's were treated with three methods such as distilled water washing, CaCO 3 solution washing and methyl cellulose solution coating for improving their conservational properties. Accelerated aging with 80 o C and 80% RH for 14 days was applied to the testing papers. Results showed that distilled water and CaCO 3 washing kept increased pH even after accelerated aging, but did not improve folding endurances for 1950's-60's papers. Methyl cellulose treatment did not increased pH of the old papers, but increased folding endurances remarkably for 1950's-60's papers even after accelerated aging. It suggests that methyl cellulose treatment after CaCO 3 washing should give improvements both in pH and folding endurance.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
