Projectomschrijving

The MEMORI-project aims to develop a dosimeter to monitor the exposure of museum objects to organic vapours in museum enclosures. These vapours (acetic acid, formic acid) are produced by wooden frames. The European partners develop the dosimeter, whereas we specifically examine the degradation of pigments under the influence of organic vapours, by using Raman spectrsocopy.
