Information About

Acid-free Paper




Acid-free paper is Paper that has a neutral or Basic PH (7 or greater), although paper having a pH between 6 and 7 is often also considered acid-free. During production, it is treated with a mild base to neutralize the natural Acid s occurring in Wood Pulp , and it may also be Buffered to prevent the formation of additional acids (as may develop from the application of Sizing ).

Acid-free paper is often used in Book s and other paper products intended to last for a long time. Paper that has not had its acidity neutralized (such as Newsprint ) quickly Yellow s and deteriorates.
