Yellowing
Describes a transformation inherent to all vegetable fibres which is caused by aging. Paper made of vegetable fibres will turn various degrees of yellow as its environment couples with ageing to produce this phenomenon. Yellowing is very evident in groundwood papers and only a few hours in direct sunlight is enough to yellow newspaper.
