- Résumé
- Previous research has shown that there are few successful methods for removing linseed oil stains on paper. Removing oil stains can be both a stabilization treatment as well as an aesthetic treatment, to gain information and improve appearance. In the past, solvents, bleaching agents and lipase enzymes have been used to remove oil from paper. None of these methods proved successful.
- In this experiment the capabilities of SC Johnson's Shout Triple Acting Trigger, to reduce or remove oil stains from paper, were investigated and compared to three prepared solutions. Shout is a commercial product that was created to remove stains from textiles. The efficacy of the commercial product, the pwo prepared detergents and an alkaline poultice of boric acid and methylcellulose to reduce aged linseed oil and olive oil stains from Whatman 41 filter paper was examined.
- Refined linseed oil and pure extra virgin olive oil were used to stain filter paper samples and then artificially aged for seven days at 80% RH and 50 degrees C. The three prepared solutions and the commercial solution were applied to the stains, and left on for 25 hours. Finally, the solutions were washed out of the oil stained samples by aqueous immersion treatments. Analysis was done on the samples before and after treatment to see if the concentration of oil in the paper decreased. Analysis was done using attenuated total reflectance (ATR)-FTIR, a spectrophotometer, a gloss meter, and the Print Council of America Paper Sample Book (PCAPSB). The ATR-FTIR spectra halved the concentration of linseed oil present. Shout was the most successful solution to remove some of the aged olive oil from the paper; however, the amount of reduction could not be quantified.
