INSITEŽ REVEALŽ ACID-FREE
Natural White Acid-Free Conservation Foamboard
DESCRIPTION: Created for conservation mounting and framing, InsiteŽ Reveal acid-free mounting boards deliver two-sided protection from damaging pollutants and harmful gases. This board is the recommended solution for photographers and artists who require a backing that will add value to high end artwork. Insite Reveal Acid-Free consists of a chemically inert core faced with natural white pH neutral paper liners. Boards are in compliance with PAT (Photographic Activity Test) standards.
REVEALŽ Foam Center: This chemically inert version of our proprietary REVEALŽ foam center is highly warp-resistant and engineered to retain its thickness during mounting.
LINERS: Our natural white liners offer a pH value ranging from 7.5 - 9.5 and are buffered with 3 -5 % calcium carbonate reserve (ASTM IT9.2-191, Sec.5.2) to retain acid-free characteristics longer. The liners are 100% High Alpha Cellulose, virgin pulp free from ground wood and/or post consumer materials (ASTM D1030, X5).

Other characteristics are as follows:
  • Contains no lignin (TAPPI 236cm-85 KAPPA #5 or less)
  • Free from metallic impurities (TAPPI 266)
  • Free from residual impurities such as bleach, sulfur or peroxide (TAPPI T406cm-88)
  • Contains no rosin or alum rosin sizing (ASTM D549-88)
  • Is stable under ultraviolet light (TAPPI 452 om-87)
