Description
A brown or colorless aqueous solution containing 3-6% Acetic acid. Vinegar occurs naturally as a mold-induced fermentation product of malt, barley, cider, wine or fruit juice. Commercially, it is used primarily in food products and as household cleaner for windows, mirrors and fish tanks. Vinegar acts as a preservative in water-based glues (paste and animal) but also decreases pH and lowers viscosity (Ackroyd 1996). As a textile mordant, white, or colorless, vinegar is used in red dyebaths; it can induce color changes in acid sensitive dyes. Vinegar is used on leather as an astringent to close the pores before tooling. The weak acid solution has a deflocculating effect on clay that allows it to be used for minor repairs of cracks on dry pots and models (Fournier 1996). It has also been used to thin watercolor pigments and to slow the setting of plaster of Paris.
