Abstract

The presented project aims to provide practical solutions for ceramic and paper artifacts, based on new antifungal recipes, in order to reduce the impact of biodegradation of cultural heritage artifacts. The developed recipes, specific for each type of support material (ceramic and paper), will be based on the use of soft nanomaterials, applicable in the form of xerogels or spraying. The recipes will take into consideration the interaction between the developed materials and the support materials.
