Introduction

In this talk Dr Daniels will discuss the changes in appearance due to chemical and physical processes that happen as objects in museums get older. Museums have to ensure these changes are kept as small as possible. The talk will examine some of the more interesting phenomena which occur and the ethical problems posed to curators and conservators. The lecture will also examine the methods conservators use to ensure that changes to objects are minimised and how processes can be designed to slow the rate of deterioration.
