Abstract
A strongly photo-yellowed paper, whose surface had been ground off to different depths, was subjected to various Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) techniques, including attenuated total reflectance (ATR), diff use reflectance (DRIFT), photoacoustic (PA), and potassium bromide pel let (KBr) spectroscopy. Depth profiling of the paper was accomplished by monitoring specific infrared bands which showed systematic and cons istent changes caused by irradiation. The results from the different F ourier transform infrared techniques were compared.
