CONTACTARTSORB is a precious humidity controller for use in the storage of artwork and cultural artifacts. It regulates changes in humidity from season-to-season and due to temperature differences between day and night. ARTSORB prevents fading and cracking of artwork and cultural artifacts. ARTSORB repeatedly adsorbs and releases moisture as if it were breathing, thus making it possible to safely store valuable artwork and cultural artifacts for long periods of time.
FEATURES
Superior Characteristics of ARTSORB
ARTSORB is silica gel as humidity control device, and it is superior to conventional humidity systems. ARTSORB has high absorption and desorption capacity and performs from low relative humidity to high relative ranges shown.
Adsorption Isotherm of ARTSORB
ARTSORB exhibits remarkable adsorption and desorption showing low hysteresis※, especially between 40 % RH and 70 % RH.
※ The discrepancy between adsorption and desorption characteristics
Targeted Humidity Conditions for Each Material
Adequate environment conditions of humidity recommended for preservation of historic and artistic works by IIC (The International Institute for Conservation of Historic and Artistic Works), ICOM (The International Council of Museum), and ICCROM (International Centre for the study of the preservation and Restoration of Cultural Property).
