Abstract
Detrimental effects of wood based construction materials used in the museum environment are dis-cussed. Chemistry of wood and wood products is reviewed with regard to emission of formaldehyde and acetic acid, using examples of storage problems reported in the conservation literature. A method for testing wood and wood products for their detrimental effects is presented.
