摘要:The current study aims to assess the damage of some historical leathers dating from 1806, 1848, 1880, and, respectively, 1887 A.D. Measurement of pH, infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), SEM and amino-acid composition study were undertaken, to improve our understanding of damage contained in leather. Several structural changes were observed in spectra of deteriorated leather. SEM data, however, show that corium layer are less susceptible to factors deterioration than are grain layer. The study proves that deterioration of leather results from both oxidation and hydrolysis.
