Abstract

This research explores the practical advantages and potential applications of spray adhesives, focusing on testing their suitability for artwork mounting uses. Their solubility in common low-toxicity solvents (ethanol and acetone) was evaluated. Seven commercial spray adhesives from different commercial brands and compositions were applied on paper samples and subjected to different aging conditions. The samples were then immersed in the solvent, and the degree of adhesive removal was measured. One of the most relevant conclusions is that commercial neoprene-based spray adhesives become brittle and fragile in a few weeks, which makes them unsuitable for both long-term and temporary applications in the heritage field. On the other hand, the solubility was high or very high in some cases: up to 98 % of adhesive removal was achieved in acetone wash. These tests and the convenience, cost and availability of spray adhesives suggest that some of them may be safely used in some scenarios such as temporary mountings or transport.

论纸张保存中喷雾粘合剂的可逆性

这项研究探讨了喷射粘合剂的实际优势和潜在应用，重点是测试它们是否适合用于艺术品镶嵌。研究评估了它们在常见低毒溶剂（乙醇和丙酮）中的溶解性。在纸样上涂抹了七种不同品牌和成分的商用喷雾粘合剂，并对其施加了不同的老化条件。然后将纸样浸入溶剂中，测量粘合剂的脱落程度。其中一个最重要的结论是，商用氯丁橡胶基喷涂粘合剂在几周内就会变脆易碎，因此不适合在文物领域长期或临时应用。另一方面，在某些情况下，粘合剂的溶解度很高或非常高：在丙酮清洗中，粘合剂的去除率高达 98%。这些测试以及喷涂粘合剂的便利性、成本和可获得性表明，其中一些粘合剂可以安全地用于某些情况，如临时安装或运输。
