Abstract
The mass deacidification processes currently available are reviewed. A liquid process based on magnesium methoxide and two gaseous processes based on morpholine or diethyl zinc appear closest to commercial status at this time and are described in some detail with their advantages and disadvantages. The diethyl zinc process as developed at the library of congress appears to be the most promising in terms of permanence and minimal side effects. -- ICCROM
