Bridging the Gap: Corrosion Science For Heritage Contexts explores the decision-making processes for preserving heritage metals while also examining the collaborative, interdisciplinary relationships that underpin them. Through themed chapters, the book is designed to develop and strengthen collaboration between these three groups of professionals, creating a synergy that benefits research and practice for the preservation of heritage metals. It builds an overview of metals conservation across a broad range of heritage contexts, from indoor museum displays to fixed outdoor structures and moving objects.Researchers and practitioners provide critical insights into corrosion problems within heritage, current corrosion mitigation procedures, and the evidence supporting best practice guidance. The book will be a valuable reference resource for corrosion and corrosion protection scientists, heritage preservation scientists, conservation practitioners, and students studying preservation of cultural objects.Provides a detailed understanding of recent advancements and the benefits of a multidisciplinary approach to addressing future challengesPresents a contextual understanding of the corrosion of a range of heritage metals in different environmentsDiscusses novel characterization techniques as applied to heritage scienceOverviews innovative protection treatments in use and under developmentIncludes extensive case studies from highly qualified experts who deal with numerous issues on the conservation of metal artifacts
