• The determination of the structure and chemicalcomposition of natural patinas grown on ancient andhistorical bronzes is an important target for archaeometry,
conservation and restoration:
• Alteration layers are usually multicomponent systems
Alteration of copper materials
• Such products are frequently distributed in different layersover the basal metallic piece
• Mutual interference of analytes is possible
• Matrix effects due to organic products, dust and complexing
species in the electrolyte can eventually occur

• The long-term exposition of bronzes to atmosphere, wateror sea water and soils gives rise to different corrosionpatterns
• The corrosion deposits are in general complex wherecorroded layers are often stratified and intergranaular or

• Localized corrosion phenomena and/or generalized attackshaving high dissolution rate produce areas on which
corrosion deposits (crusts, ‘limpets’, ‘buboes’) hide theoriginal metallic surface and regions where the originalsurface is clearly destroyed with loss of matter (pits,crevices, lamellar plates)

• Two general methodologies for layer-by-layer analysis:
• 1) Successive reductive potential scans maintaining the
‘pencil’ electrode on the probe
Voltammetry of microparticles
• 2) Alternating reductive potential steps at a ‘cathodic
potential’ and potential scans for determination
• In both cases, the aim is to stepwise exhaust thedifferent corrosion layers

• In several cases, the rising portion of voltammetric peaks can beapproached by a Tafel-type linear variation of log(i) vs. potential (E)
• This applies for irreversible electron transfer processes betweenspecies in solution phase (Reinmuth, W.H. Anal. Chem. 1960, 32 ,1891-1892; Buck, R.P. Anal. Chem. 1964, 36 , 947-949)

For several solid-state electrochemical processes well-defined Tafel plots
are obtained (in particular for Cu-based minerals) from LSVs andSQWVs
Generalized Tafel slope (SL) and ordinate at the origin (OO) recorded for

solid state processes using voltammetry of microparticles are phase-characteristic, enabling for mineral identification
Using the above parameters, relative quantification of components X andY in homogeneous mixtures of particulate deposits can be obtained

Final considerations
The use of both ‘graphite pencil’ and conventionalvoltammetry of microparticles methodologies permits the
layer-by-layer identification of corrosion products in copper-based works of art and archaeological artifacts
The use of repetitive voltammetry and/or reductive potentialsteps at a constant potential provides an unambiguousidentification of components in stratified corrosion layers of
bronze and brass archaeological and/or artistic artifacts
