An EPR study on ancient and newly synthesised Egyptian blue

open access: yesTalanta, 2006
Two sets of ancient Roman Egyptian blue (EB) samples and one set of EB samples synthesised in our lab, were analysed by EPR spectroscopy, a technique not commonly used in this field. The spectroscopic parameters obtained were used to attempt the discrimination of the provenance and of the manufacturing techniques of the investigated samples.

CHROMATIC ALTERATION OF EGYPTIAN BLUE AND EGYPTIAN GREEN PIGMENTS IN PHARAONIC LATE PERIOD TEMPERA MURALS

open access: yes, 2021
This study provides a new reason for the colour alteration of the first man-made pigments (Egyptian blue, EB, “cuprorivaite” and Egyptian green, EG, “wollastonite”). The study focuses on the identification of the most efficient bacterial and fungal species that can grow upon copper-based pigment materials (Egyptian blue and Egyptian green); and their ...
