Structural analysis of historical materials

These investigations apply synchrotron radiation (SR) micro X-ray diffraction (µXRD) and micro X-ray fluorescence (µXRF) mapping at high lateral resolution (HR) to explore the interaction of inorganic-mineral conservation treatments (ammonium oxalate, AmOx) with the decayed, magnesium-containing, carbonatic matrix of Cultural Heritage (CH) fresco paintings.
