The Influence of Air Pollutants on the Atmospheric Corrosion of Bronze Artefacts and Protection with Inhibitor

Öz

Atmospheric corrosion of bronze has been investigated in presence of air pollutants, since this material is widely preferred for construction of artefacts, in relation with meteorological parameters. The data showed that bronze surface could be protected with organic thin film which is also compatible with natural oxides. Polymer-like organic films were obtained on the surface, thanks to chemisorption of organic inhibitor molecules. The said layer was shown to exhibit high protection efficiency against atmospheric corrosion.

Bronz Yapıtların Atmosferik Korozyonunda Hava Kirleticilerin Etkisi ve İnhibitörle Korunması

Öz

Arkeolojik ve modern yapıtlarda sıkça karşılaşılan bronz malzemenin atmosferik korozyonu, havada bulunan kirleticiler ve diğer meteorolojik verilerle ilişkilendirilerek çalışılmıştır. Bronz yüzeyinin atmosferik korozyona karşı uzun süreli korunmasını sağlamak için organik inhibitör etkinlikleri test edilmiştir. İnhibitörün kimyasal adsorpsiyonu ile oluşan polimerik filmin oksit birikintisi ile uyumlu olduğu ve bu yolla atmosferik korozyona karşı etkin bir koruma sağlanabileceği gösterilmiştir
