survey on the conservation of aluminum

[claudiac]

This message is posted on behalf of Yolaine Tissier, contact details below.

Hi everyone,

I am a final year student in materials engineering at the Polytech Nantes, France. As part of a six months internship at the conservation lab Arc’Antique in Nantes, I am trying to gather information about the treatment of corroded aluminum, particularly building on from previous research on this subject by Christian Degrigny.

I am currently working on propeller blades made of duralumin from WWII and am interested in knowing what treatments would be suitable for this material. I would like to do several experiments to compare different treatment methods.

If you can assist in any way, please contact me on my email address below and I will send you a quick questionnaire. Feel free to pass on contact details for others you may know who are also working on this subject, or forward this email.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you in advance.

Best regards,
Yolaine Tissier
