is it archival?

so....i have been having a blast with the 'pour painting' techniques as you know....i have found a relatively cheap recipe for the pour, using white glue.....'so, is that archival?' a dear artist friend asks.....hmmmmmm....is any of my work archival?  what does that even mean now a days in our 'disposable' society....well.....i would be absolutely honored (and shocked) if my art was kept around for 70 years....right?  
go play!
