PURPOSE
Introduce students to access materials analysis which does not allow classical sampling and through this classical preparation of samples for analysis. Application to restoration and conservation work.
THE CONTENTS OF THE COURSE
Lectures
1. Introductory lecture; introduction to the course, with terms of examination, instructions for exercises. The role of analytical chemistry in art and archeology, the role of scientific analytical work in education of restorers conservators.
2. Tasks of laboratory, laboratory techniques and methods. Introduction to analytical system: access to object which cannot be damaged, preparing the object for analysis, microsampling, laser microsampling, electrochemical microsampling.
3. Introduction to the application of classical and modern instrumental techniques for determining the chemical composition and surface analysis of the object: spectroscopic, electroanalytical and separation methods.
4 Application of atomic and molecular spectroscopy in restoring and preserving objects of historical and cultural importance.
5. Applying of X ray fluorescence and diffraction in restoring and preserving objects of historical and cultural importance.
6. Application analysis of ion beams, PIXE, PIGE, RBS and neutron activation analysis in the restoration and preservation objects of historical and cultural importance.
7. Application of Infrared and Raman spectroscopy for the restoration and preservation objects of historical and cultural importance.
8. Application of photographic research in restoring and preserving objects of historical and cultural importance: infrared photography and reflectography.
9. Application of photographic research in restoring and preserving objects of historical and cultural importance: ultraviolet reflectography and fluorescence.
10. Application of photographic research in restoring and preserving objects of historical and cultural importance by x-ray radiography and X ray computer tomography.
11. Application of separation chromatographic methods for restoring and preserving objects of historical and cultural importance.
12. Impact of microorganisms and other impacts on the deterioration of objects of historical and cultural importance, fumigation of art.
13. Dendrochronology, absolute and relative dating of the past.
14. Students seminars on a given topic.
15. Final exam of lectures and of laboratory exercises.
Laboratory exercises, every week for 3 hours, 5 weeks:
WEEK 1
Anodic sampling of archaeological bronzes and analysis by thin layer chromatography.
WEEK 2
Preparation of samples for binder analysis by thin-layer chromatography, ultrasonic extraction.
WEEK 3
Analysis of binders, resins, oils, waxes in wall paintings from Brezovica castle.
WEEK 4
Determination of pigments by infrared spectrometry.
WEEK 5
Compensation for laboratory exercises.
Field work, 6 visits, each 2 h
1. Visitation to Archaeological Museum, analysis of mummies.
2. Visitation to Natural science laboratory in the Croatian Conservation Institute, access to the object from sampling to analysis and writing reports.
3. Visitation to the Croatian State Archives, Palace Lubinsky, a central laboratory for restoration and conservation of paper and leather.
4. Visitation to the Ethnographic Museum, a central laboratory for restoration and conservation of textiles and other supporting items, jewellery, feathers.
5. Visit to the Workshop for Metals at the Croatian Conservation Institute, Apoxyomenos from the sea to the museum exhibit.
6. Visit to Brezovica Castle as part of multidisciplinary research with the Academy of Fine Arts.
GENERAL AND SPECIFIC COMPETENCE
Introduction to the analysis of works of art and archaeological objects, for which is usually impossible to take macro samples and through this is emphasized the importance of using methods that enable analysis in situ or the analysis after micro-sampling of objects.
KNOWLEDGE TESTING AND EVALUATION
Written and oral examination. The possibility of release written part of the exam if you collect enough points. The oral part of the exam with the teacher.
MONITORING OF THE COURSE QUALITY AND SUCCESSFULNESS
Student questionnaire.

Expected learning outcomes at the level of the course
1. Proper interpretation adopted theoretical knowledge related to methods of instrumental analysis and principles of instruments and procedural knowledge and skills related to practical performance measurement.
2. Explain the connection between basic knowledge in the application of instrumental analysis of artistic artifacts and artifacts of historical importance.
3. The ability for autonomously practice on the analysis of real samples (from sampling to interpretation of results) in the laboratory for instrumental analysis of non-destructive methods and further autonomously study having a positive attitude about the need for the development of professional competencies.
4. Integrate the acquired knowledge and apply them in problem solving and decision making in the restoration and conservation practice.
Learning outcomes at the level of the study programme Applied Chemistry
1. Apply the more complex principles of chemistry built upon the foudations of the Bachelors degree.
2. Apply ideas within a research context.
3. Integrate knowledge to handle complex ideas.
4. Create judgments based on incomplete or limited information.
5. Objectively evaluate research results for their presentation.
6. Organize laboratory work in responsible manner.
7. Explain scientific or technical concepts, data, and conclusions with the knowledge and rationale underpinning them to both specialist and nonspecialist audiences in written and oral form.
8. Develop interaction with scientists from other disciplines on inter or multidisciplinary problems.
