Research
activity
The Research Unity at the University of Florence contributes to
the aims of the present project with activities:
1) development of advanced analytical methods based on
electronic and vibrational spectroscopy, to detect and
characterize materials in artworks such as organic dyes, binders,
consolidants and protective as well as related products of
degradation.
In particular
- Study of the degradation processes that interest the organic
materials, and their surrounding chemical environment, in
paintings induced by artificial ageing tests.
- Study of the binding medium - pigment (samples) interaction
taking into consideration their chemical compositions and the
environmental conditions surrounding the samples. - Study of
paint systems based on synthetic organic colorants and modern/
contemporary binders. The macroscopic behaviour of these systems
under diverse environmental parameters will be investigated by
using non-invasive electronic and vibrational spectroscopic
techniques.
2) Development of integrated methodologies, both under
instrumental and chemometric-statistic elaboration of the data
aspects, to evaluate the degradation state of the objects.
3) Superficial cleaning and diagnosis: new materials and
prospects. |
