Passive monitoring for museum showcase pollutants

Abstract

Metal test strips provide a useful visual indication of whether corrosive substances are present in museum showcases. These can be complemented by passive diffusion tubes to give a more quantitative idea of the rate of production or ingress of pollutants. Reference is made to three sites where these techniques have been used: the Waterloo Diorama at Dover Castle, Corbridge Museum on Hadrian's Wall, and Portchester Castle.
