Abstract

Air pollution in museums, libraries, churches, and other indoor environments of cultural heritage objects was studied since 1980s. For classification of corrosivity for such type of indoor environments the ISO 11844 series was developed in 2006. In 2020 the revision of this ISO 11844 series had been finished, where lead was included as standard specimen with high sensitivity to vapour organic acids. This paper gives results of exposure of lead standard coupons in museums and other similar indoor environments together with measurement of climatic parameters and air pollution to verify the new approach.
