The ammonium salt of N-phenyloxamic acid (AmPhOxam) was synthesised, characterised by FT-IR, FT-Raman, UV-Vis, 1H-NMR spectroscopic methods and single crystal X-ray diffraction, and evaluated as a protective and consolidating agent for calcareous stone substrates under mild conditions. Hydro- alcoholic solutions of AmPhOxam were tested for the treatment of naturally weathered white marble and biomicritic limestone. Mercury intrusion porosimetry, FT-NIR spectroscopy measurements and SEM microscopy showed the formation of a superficial protective layer of crystals of the corresponding monohydrated calcium salt, CaPhOxam, on both treated stones.

Abstract
The ammonium salt of N-phenyloxamic acid (AmPhOxam) was synthesised, characterised by FT-IR, FT-Raman, UV-Vis, 1H-NMR spectroscopic methods and single crystal X-ray diffraction, and evaluated as a protective and consolidating agent for calcareous stone substrates under mild conditions. Hydro- alcoholic solutions of AmPhOxam were tested for the treatment of naturally weathered white marble and biomicritic limestone. Mercury intrusion porosimetry, FT-NIR spectroscopy measurements and SEM microscopy showed the formation of a superficial protective layer of crystals of the corresponding monohydrated calcium salt, CaPhOxam, on both treated stones.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
