“…As an example, a compound such as sodium bicarbonate may precipitate out of solution and remain in the paper when it is dried after the treatment. Another potential advantage of aqueous treatments is that they can be used to wash the paper free of dirt, as well to remove products of hydrolytic decomposition, which may include acidic compounds (Tang 1981;Bogaard and Whitmore 2001;Zervos 2007;Zervos and Alexopoulou 2015).…”

“…Since the bleaching agent is usually applied as a solution, the main purpose of bleaching is cosmetic, that is the removal of the overall discoloration or of disfiguring stains. But bleaching process destroys chromophore groups by either oxidation or reduction, depending on the kind of the bleaching reagent [6]. Bleaching can convert a conjugated double bond to carboncarbon single bond which removes discoloration from paper [7].…”

64O LD historical papers always are suffering from yellowing and darkness specifically after natural aging, so this study aim to evaluated some traditional bleaching materials that used in treatments of documents and books like hydrogen peroxide and sodium borohydride. Physical and chemical changes in paper sheets (cotton linter paper and book) before and after aging were studied such as color change, pH measurements, tensile strength, burst strength, FT-IR spectrum and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The result pointed out that H 2 O 2 & NaBH 4 lead to no significant improvement in mechanical properties of the historical paper. The effect of H 2 O 2 and NaBH 4 concentration, bleaching time and pH on paper sheet bleaching process were examined. Whiteness and yellowness results of the historical paper were evaluated for both bleaching methods. From this work it is clear that, it is not desirable to utilize bleaching agents for the treatment and conservation of ancient archaeological papers, but only in the essential cases they may be used in slight concentrations to treat yellowing, staining or stains.

“…Ad esempio, la deacidificazione di massa del patrimonio librario, considerata in molti casi un'operazione dagli indubbi benefici anche a lungo termine (riserva alcalina), necessita di un controllo puntuale e accurato circa gli effetti che può produrre sui colori e sui e pigmenti, oltre che sulle proprietà meccaniche del supporto cartaceo (Zervos, Alexopoulou 2015). Una deacidificazione mirata, oltre a contenere i costi di questo intervento, evita possibili effetti negativi sui manufatti che possono invece essere mantenuti attraverso operazioni meno impattanti.…”

Dalla Tutela Al Restauro Del Patrimonio Librario E Archivistico

IntroduzioneNell'ambito della conservazione dei materiali cellulosici, ridurre i fattori di rischio responsabili del degrado significa agire in termini di prevenzione; un adeguato monitoraggio ambientale rappresenta il primo ed essenziale atto concreto in questo senso (Federici 2009). Da questa logica e cogente considerazione derivano le attuali indicazioni e normative per una corretta conservazione del patrimonio librario. In questo breve testo vogliamo riassumere alcuni aspetti relativi al monitoraggio e riportare alcune esperienze di interventi di manutenzione considerandone gli aspetti di 'sostenibilità economica', tema d'interesse per archivi e biblioteche. Per capire l'impatto di una politica di prevenzione, al di là delle giuste considerazioni relative alle conseguenze derivanti dagli interventi di restauro sui supporti cellulosici, è necessario definire l'entità del patrimonio librario almeno a livello nazionale. MANUS è un database dei manoscritti in alfabeto latino prodotti dal medioevo all'età contemporanea conservati nelle biblioteche italiane pubbliche, ecclesiastiche e private. MANUS ha
