摘要：This study focuses on using analytical techniques for identifying the components of the manuscript to explain its deterioration process. The “Tafsir Al Khazen” manuscript, a rare manuscript of the seventeenth century, consists of paper sheets and leather bookbinding; it had been damaged by sewage water in the courtyard of the Al-Azhar mosque. Concerning measurements, we used visual assessment, pH measurements, isolation and identification of fungi, moisture content, investigation of the surface morphology by SEM, identification of pigment binder by FTIR - ATR, chemical testing of the paper components, X-ray diffraction and EDX analysis of ink and pigments X- ray diffraction analysis (XRD) for determining paper crystallinity. The results revealed that cotton fibres may have been used as raw material in the creation of paper. Alum, gelatine have been used as a sizing in paper manuscript. Goat skin was identified as the animal skin of the bookbinding, the black ink used was carbon ink, the pigments used on the paper were silver sulphide (HgS) for red colour, gold leaf for gold colour and natural ultramarine mixed with white lead for blue colour. Aspergillus sp. and Penicillium sp. were the most dominant fungi found on the manuscript. The pH of leather was higher than in normal conditions.
