Identification of inorganic compounds in composite alum-treated wooden artefacts from the Oseberg collection [PDF]
AbstractAlum-treated wooden artefacts from the Oseberg collection display a great deal of morphological, structural and compositional inhomogeneity. Thus, an in-depth understanding of chemical processes underlying their degradation requires consideration of a variety of local environments.

Alum: an old dog with new tricks
Aluminum compounds (alum) are the most widely used adjuvants in veterinary and human vaccines. Alum was initially thought to be a simple depot for antigen retention; however, our understanding of the mechanism by which it works has progressed ...

Identification of metal compounds in alum-treated wood from the Oseberg collection
Wooden artefacts from the Oseberg collection contain various metal compounds arising from factors such as alum-treatment, the use of metal joiners and storage in metal tanks. Such compounds can significantly influence the condition of the wood, and therefore inorganic characterisation is important to include in studies of the wood.

Environmental impact of alum shale mining and oil and uranium production in Kvarntorp, Sweden, based on historical archives and environmental monitoring data [PDF]
Oil production (1942â1966) and uranium extraction (1953â1961) from the Alum Shale Formation in Kvarntorp, Sweden has had a great environmental impact on the area. Other industrial activities have also contributed to pollution.
