Many scientists have through time developed interests in undertaking researches related either directly or indirectly to corrosion, which could be attributed to increasing cases of material breakdown as a result of corrosion. There are... more
For decades, the conservation of archaeological iron has challenged conservators. A variety of techniques have been used in an attempt to mitigate the negative effects of chloride ions on the corrosion of iron artifacts and prevent... more
A technical study was conducted on a group of copper alloy artifacts excavated from the burial tumulus of Lofkënd (fourteenth–ninth century BCE) to identify the alloy compositions and methods of manufacture. The surface corrosion was also... more
When restoring the metal artefacts which may be linked with a Langobard ethnic group, found in site 2 during excavations preceding construction of the M86 motorway, the greatest problem was the advanced state of corrosion, which... more
The presence or absence of use-wear marks on copper (Cu)-alloy weaponry has been used since the late 1990s to investigate the balance between functional (combat) and symbolic (value, status, religious) use of these objects, and thus... more
