Summary/Abstract: The scientific concern of the authors is part of the project entitled: “The research, testing and using in the laboratory of natural products presenting significant impacts for de-acidification of paper collections“, an ambitious, original scientific project with perspective steps in ecological development and application of technological, clean lines, about the infodocuments de-acidification for paper from libraries, museums and archives. Testing the natural products in pure chemical structures or composite structure (structure-blending) and obtaining of the stable chemical formula of the product is the first phase of the project which will check several products with destabilizing effects of hydrogen ions in the structure of the paper.
