Abstract
The use of moisture barriers to retard sorption/desorption of moisture in wood panel paintings is described with reference to experimental work using Acryloid B72, polyvinyl acetate (AYAA), paraffin and Saran F-310 as coatings using short cycle humidity variations between 32 and 75%. Dimensional changes were measured with strain gages.
