    Adhesives and Consolidants in Painting Conservation

    by Angelina Barros D'Sa, Lizzie Bone
    Rhiannon Clarricoates, Alexandra Gent (eds)

    Standard UK Price: UKP32.50

    Adhesives and consolidants used in the conservation of paintings
    (e.g. for lining, the laying down of paint flakes, the
    application of temporary facings etc), can have very varying
    properties at the time they are applied. Over time, and under
    differing conditions, some materials can present concerns for
    the conservator including brittleness, yellowing and
    discolouration and difficulty in removal.

    The papers in this volume, presented at an ICON paintings group
    conference at the National Portrait Gallery, London, confront
    some of the problems encountered including: the practical
    application of materials; reversibility and long-term
    performance; the properties required of an adhesive and the
    properties of some of the materials commonly used as
    consolidants/adhesives.
