Triammonium citrate : an investigation into its application for surface cleaning

1990

Abstract

Considers the effectiveness of triammonium citrate in surface cleaning paintings - in particular, in removing intractable players of dirt that cannot be cleaned with conventional solvents and aqueous cleaning agents. Also describes cleaning tests on one of Turner's oil sketches, and identifies the composition of the obscuring layer.
