Re: [Digital BW] Silver Rag Yellowing

2012-08-23 by Ernst Dinkla

Clayton,

There is now a discussion about Museo Silver Rag on the LL forum. A 
representative of Museo/Intelicoat is involved:

http://www.luminous-landscape.com/forum/index.php?PHPSESSID=b10b7470f473315dbd9e4a732b7c9987&topic=69272.0

About the more recent changes in that paper and the claim it is back to 
old standards which sounds like an invitation to add your experience. 
The information there suggests that the new paper base is no longer made 
by Crane.

Is the yellowing happening more on the coating side or more on the paper 
base? Did it transfer to the papers directly in contact with the MSR? I 
think sulphur contamination or something like plasticizer evaporating 
from PVC etc would harm more papers in that bundle. A bad gelatine or 
PVA in the inkjet coating or paper sizing with biological impurities 
right from the manufacturing stahe and that Florida climate (despite the 
AC) could do a more selective destruction in time. Could even have been 
bad water in production.
