Preservation Environment Evaluation
Type of Decay
Risks & M etrics
Natural Aging
Chemical decay of
organic materials
Evaluation & General Comments
OK
Generally OK, but fast decaying organic materials such as acidic paper,
color photographs and cellulosic plastics will be at elevated risk due to
the cumulative effects of temperature and humidity
TWPI = 53
RISK
Mechanical Damage
Physical damage to
hygroscopic materials
Heightened risk of physical damage to any hygroscopic material, such as
paintings, rare books, furniture, paper, leather, film, or color photos, due
to extremely low or high levels of humidity, and / or excessive humidity
fluctuation.
% DC = 1.6
% EMC min = 3.7
% EMC max = 9.4
Mold Risk
M old growth in area or
on collection objects
GOOD
M inimal risk of mold growth.
MRF = 0
Metal Corrosion
Corrosion of metal
components or objects
OK
Generally OK, but archeological or salt-encrusted metals may corrode due
to extended periods of moderately high levels of humidity.
% EMC max = 9.4
