The presence of chloride compounds in the corrosion products showed that the coins have been suffering from ‘bronze disease’ so that any preventive conservation must include keeping the relative humidity of their storage and exhibition environments below 45%. | |
15 Citations | Determination of the microchemistry of surface corrosion layers on ancient silver alloy coins is important both in terms of understanding the nature of archaeological environmental conditions to which these ancient coins were exposed and also to help in their conservation. |
3 Citations | The possible corrosion mechanisms for the iron coins were discussed based on the corrosion products. Originality/value – This study revealed the characterization of corrosion products on archaeological iron coins and may provide guidance ... |
12 Citations | The results indicate that galvanic corrosion occurs when fresh amalgam restorations are placed in contact with old ones, and that various amalgam combinations may give rise to considerably different corrosion rates. |
Equivalent circuits confirmed that the corrosion performance of the Ni-Zn-Cu coins depends on the Zn/Ni ratio, such that decreasing this value decreases the corrosion resistance of the alloy. | |
16 Citations | Moreover, the state of conservation, corrosion processes and attempts to repair the coins can be determined. |
3 Citations | The potentiostatic methods showed excellent effectiveness in determining treatment parameters and monitoring the reduction process of the corrosion products on the coins, which helped to preserve surface details in the cleaning process and to prevent over-treatment. |
15 Citations | Coins from the same stratigraphic unit have shown different morphologies of corrosion, probably due to different micro-environmental conditions. |
Regardless of the chemical composition of the Cu-based coins, they showed similar polarization curves; particularly, the observed similarity in the anodic zone suggests that the corrosion mechanism is the same in all cases. | |
16 Citations | 100 to 200 μm in the near surface regions of most of the coins could be observed, which is due to corrosion effects. |
