This study presents applications of portable nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) technology on stone and wood materials through NMR profiles. First, the results of consolidation and protection treatments with hydrophobic agents on sandstones from the cemetery of Hoppenlau, Stuttgart, are presented and discussed. The second case study focuses on measurements of the Holy Thursday altarpiece in the sacristy of Freising Cathedral. Portable NMR instrumentation was employed, demonstrating the ability of this non-invasive and non-destructive technique to characterize the porous structural properties of cultural heritage materials.
