Article Synopsis
- A significant portion of historical documents, particularly those from the Portuguese Inquisition, is at risk due to the use of iron-gall ink (IGI).
- The study employed advanced scientific techniques like SEM/EDS, µ-FT-IR-ATR, and µ-Raman to analyze and characterize these historical records from the 16th to 18th centuries.
- Findings not only confirmed the presence of IGI but also revealed different ink formulations and the harmful effects caused by the ink's degradation.
