The synergistic influence of metal cations on the drying and viscosity of linseed oil assessed by means of model samples containing synthesised metal carboxylates

Abstract The recent multi-analytical study carried out on the Van Eyck’s Ghent Altarpiece showed the simultaneous presence of several kinds of metal carboxylates in oil-rich glaze layers. This outcome raised the question whether these carboxylates had already formed during the preparation of the oil...
