Case
study; ADHESIVES IN CONSERVATION
The plethora of practical and ethical demands
of the conservation/restoration profession often means that the
full range of adhesives available to us must be considered as possible
practical solutions and as such their properties need to be examined.
Using information gathered in practical sessions 6 of the most common
adhesives were be compared for their respective properties and applications.
Their practical usefulness to the conservator will be assessed and
the ethical and practical consequences of their use will also be
scrutinised against the ethical
overview that governs the decision making process.-
