The main objective of the Action is to explore chemical interactions between cultural artefacts and typical indoor environmental conditions through field studies and laboratory experiments and to translate the results into preventive conservation. The Action focuses on the chemical impact of pollutants on materials, thus also considering physical and environmental aspects, materials technology, chemical analytics, emission and standardisation.
