ASPECT OF QUESTIONED
DOCUMENTS
At first impression, it seemed that the
examination of questioned documents is
hardly within the scope of a forensic
chemist, but if we consider the fact that
the essential materials in a document
examination of any kind are the PAPER
and INK or PENCIL, and the chemical
examination of inks, erasures, alterations
and sequence of writing are all associated
with such examination. It will be evident
that there is a large amount of purely
chemical work in the field of document
examination.

5. COLORED WRITING INK – today almost
all colored inks are composed of synthetic
aniline dyestuffs dissolved in water. In
certain colored inks ammonium vanadate
is added to render the writing more
permanent.
