Ll. Sharipova et Iy. Kalontarov, PLANT DYES AND THEIR USE IN RESTORATION OF EASTERN MANUSCRIPTS, International journal of polymeric materials, 19(3-4), 1993, pp. 137-143
Plant dyes' influence on mechanical and physico-chemical paper propert
ies in different conditions of heat- and light-accelerated artificial
aging process was studied. A method of isolating dyeing complexes from
plants by regulating solvent and extraction parameters was developed.
Problems concerning the production and use of paper dyed according to
the proposed method in practical work of restoration paper-based manu
scripts, lithographies and documents are discussed.
