In situ analysis with portable Raman and ED-XRF spectrometers for the diagnosis of the formation of efflorescence on walls and wall paintings of the …

2014

This work presents the results of field Raman analyses, assisted by a hand-held energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometer, for the experimental determination of efflorescence from walls and wall paintings of two Pompeian houses, one with many luxurious decorative elements (House of Marcus Lucretius, Regio IX, Insula 3, House 5/24) and a more modest building (Regio IX, Insula 3, House 1-2). Both exposed and protected rooms were measured in different year seasons, spring (May 2010) and summer (September 2011 and 2012) and considering different orientations. Chemical attacks of acid gases (CO2, SO2 and NOx) on the original compounds of the mortars, biominerals formed by the biological …
