Density, whiteness, pH value, and fiber morphology of the deed papers were measured and analyzed, and the physical condition of the deeds was determined. The results showed S1 and S3 were severely damaged, S2 and S4 were moderately damaged, and S5 was mildly damaged. The abovementioned deeds are physical witnesses to the history of Deng papermaking, and have high value as cultural relics and historical documents.
