This book was released on 2013-07-31 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This chapter discusses the importance of using standards in conservation methodology and practice for cultural heritage (CH) metals. The past general trend in the field is the use of metal industry standards. The chapter surveys the relevant scientific publications, and concludes that conservation researchers use a variety of these standards adopted by different organisations. As a result, it can be difficult to compare scientific data for CH metal studies carried out by different laboratories. The chapter discusses the necessity to draft new standards for metals specific for CH by examining how three independent researchers had different findings when testing the same coating. The role of CEN/TC 346 ‘Conservation of Cultural Heritage’ is also discussed.

This book was released on 2013-07-31 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the present chapter laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is introduced as a powerful spectrochemical analytical technique that can be exploited to characterize corroded artifacts. Scientific and technological aspects of LIBS are briefly presented. LIBS does not need sample preparation, it is nondestructive and it can be used for in-situ measurements. Examples of LIBS applications that can help archaeologists in conservation and restoration of metallic artifacts are given. We demonstrated the use of LIBS in analysis of corroded metal threads, depth profiling of copper-based decorative artefact, analysis of corroded Punic coins, and LIBS and XRF analysis of Roman silver denarii.

Book excerpt: This chapter gives general information on the production of sol-gel coatings with alkoxysilanes. Some examples of their application on outdoor bronze artefacts are reported. The protective effects of 3-mercapto-trimethoxysilyl-propane (Prop-SH) hydroalcoholic solution on polished and patinated bronzes were studied. Electrochemical tests, performed in acidic artificial rain (AAR, pH 3.1) and in 5% NaCl solution for 168h, were checked in 45d AAR Salt Cabinet and in 30d ASTM B117 Test on bronze statues. The treatment with Prop-SH showed high efficiency towards the corrosion both in AAR and in 5% NaCl.

This book was released on 2013-07-31 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding the long-term corrosion mechanisms of iron in an anoxic environment is essential in the field of the preservation of archaeological heritage artefacts and nuclear waste management. Corrosion mechanisms have been assessed by examining nails 400 years old from the archaeological site of Glinet. This chapter provides an overview of the characterisation of the entire corrosion system environment/samples through coupled multiscale analytical tools. The environment is anoxic, calco-carbonated and water-saturated. Three corrosion patterns composed of ferrous carbonates (siderite and chukanovite) and magnetite have been identified. Depending on the connection between the phases and their location, the electronic properties of the corrosion layers have been established. The electrochemical behaviour of the corrosion system shows that water reduction at the metallic interface is negligible. Furthermore, the electron consumption sites are mainly localised on the external part and the precipitation sites on the internal part of the corrosion layer. The corrosion rate is estimated to be less than 2μm/year and a corrosion mechanism is proposed based on a decoupling of the anodic and cathodic sites and on the existence of a nanometric corrosion layer at the metallic interface.

This book was released on 2013-07-31 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modelling and electrochemical simulation of corrosion confirms that the decay rate of iron shipwrecks is cathodically controlled by the flux of dissolved oxygen. The rate falls logarithmically with increasing water depth with splash zone corrosion rates at zero water depth. The interaction of corroding iron with the marine biota is complex and symbiotic. Corrosion rates are interdependent on the salinity and temperature of the surrounding seawater which determines the amount of dissolved oxygen. Monitoring the corrosion potentials and pH of wreck materials provides a very sensitive indicator of changes in environment brought about through natural or human intervention.

This book was released on 2013-07-31 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current research into the removal of soluble chloride corrosion drivers from archaeological iron by deoxygenated aqueous alkaline treatments is described and assessed, along with suggestions for future work. The problems of how to determine treatment success are discussed, along with the impact of treatment unknowns, such as chloride form and location within iron objects, on the assessment techniques. Post-treatment residual chloride is shown to be the best measure of treatment effectiveness and methods for assessing this are described. A real-time study of oxygenated and deoxygenated treatment mechanisms and corrosion product transformations using micro X-ray diffraction is reported.

After an overview of the study and conservation of metal archaeological artefacts, a group of chapters reviews long term corrosion in metals such as steel, iron and bronze. Other chapters review the impact of environmental factors on corrosion rates. The book also considers instrumental techniques for measuring corrosion such as electrochemistry and scanning electron microscopy, as well as ways of modelling corrosion processes. There is also coverage of the effectiveness of corrosion inhibitors. With its distinguished editors and contributors, Corrosion of metallic heritage artefacts improves our understanding of long term corrosion and its effects. It provides a valuable reference for those involved in archaeology and conservation, as well as those dealing with the long term storage of nuclear and other waste.

This book was released on 2013-07-31 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘Artistic/intentional’ patina is a surface layer intentionally produced by an artist or a specialized professional on a metallic artwork with aesthetic or practical purposes. From the science of surfaces point of view the ‘artistic’ patina could be considered as an interface between the metallic substrate and the external environment and therefore affecting, depending on its physical and chemical peculiarities, the corrosion process. In order to understand how the ‘artistic’ patina behaves inside the exposure environment, an experimental activity was carried out: the study of the data collected with the application of different analytical techniques contributed to a more pertinent knowledge of the characteristics of metallic works of art which, in turn, leads to a restoration process respecting their real nature.
