Vannoni, Lorenzo published the artcileDisclosing the chemistry of oil curing by mass spectrometry using methyl linoleate as a model binder, Application In Synthesis of 111-11-5, the main research area is mass spectrometry methyl linoleate model binder oil curing.

The structure of the polymeric fraction in an oil painting is believed to be strongly connected to the stability of the paint layers over time, but its mol. characterization is extremely difficult given the complex composition of a vegetable oil-based polymer. In this study we report the implementation of a methodol. approach for the systematic mass spectrometric investigation of the mol. features of the products of oxidative degradation and crosslinking of oil paint layers upon curing. The approach is based on the use of Me linoleate as a simplified model of an oil paint binder. Gas-chromatog. coupled with mass spectrometry, solid phase microextraction gas chromatog. mass spectrometry, flow injection electrospray mass spectrometry and evolved gas anal. mass spectrometry, are used to analyze the evolution of compounds produced over seven months of natural ageing, from the volatile products to the macromol. and cross-linked fractions. The aim is to improve our fundamental mol. understanding of the curing process of oil paints, and to investigate the balance between oxidative degradation and crosslinking when specific binder-pigment combinations are in place. Model paint layers were prepared using lead white and ultramarine blue as pigments. These two pigments are known to produce paint layers with different stability over time. The use of Me linoleate as model oil binder greatly simplifies the mass spectral features of the lipid paint fraction, enabling the detection of products of oxidation and crosslinking with a new high level of mol. detail. Data clearly show that crucial differences between paints containing the two pigments establish with time, which are mostly related to the cross-linked fraction.
