Deterioration Factors of Museum Collections

Summary/Abstract: One of the most important aspects of working in heritage institutions is to know the reasons and ways of decay of the collection we care about. Each material requires certain type of microclimate so it could be able to maintain its appearance and shape over a long period of time. Conservators and curators should keep in mind that the conditions of accommodation and presentation must be optimal for a particular type of material. In addition it is important to understand the reasons of deterioration, their frequency, and its impact to the museums and their collections. It is important to identify the types of disasters that can appear at institutions and thus find an appropriate way to react in accordance with them. It is important to be aware of potential critical - catastrophic scenarios and to find appropriate ways to eliminate or to diminish them.
