Solvent gels for the cleaning of works of art : the residue question / by Stulik, Dusan,1956-(CARDINAL)213917; Dorge, Valerie,1946-(CARDINAL)212359;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 145-152) and index.Examines gel cleaning in the treatment of paintings and painted works of art, presents the methodologies, data, and results of a collaborative project of the Getty Conservation Institute and Winterthur Museum. Among the issues covered are the theory and application of gel cleaning systems, the detection of residues left on the surfaces of objects cleaned with these systems, research into solvent-gel and solvent residues, stability of surfactants during natural and artificial aging, and recommendations for formulating gels for specific cleaning tasks.

Lead-containing paint removal, containment, and disposal / by Smith, Lloyd M.,1954-(CARDINAL)609054; Tinklenberg, Gary L.; United States.Federal Highway Administration.Office of Engineering & Highway Operations Research and Development.(CARDINAL)286896; United States.Federal Highway Administration.Offices of Research and Development.(CARDINAL)284766; S.G. Pinney & Associates.;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 259-264).Introduction -- Environmental regulations -- Containment -- Waste treatment and stabilization -- Maintenance-painting strategies -- Surface preparation with abrasives -- Other surface preparation methods -- Cost -- Summary and conclusions -- Appendices -- References.Final report;Approximately 90% of the steel highway bridges in the United States are protected from corrosion with lead-based paints. A comprehensive study was performed to evaluate the various factors involved with lead-paint removal. Containment and ventilation systems were studied and recommendations were developed for containment materials, design of joints, design of air inputs, negative pressure, and air flow within containment. Waste disposal is a significant issue due to long-term liability and cost. Tests were performed on hazardous waste characterization, waste minimization, methods of generating non-hazardous waste, and long-term stability of lead-containing wastes and stabilized wastes. Alternate surface preparation methods and costs were evaluated. Recyclable steel abrasive was found to be cost-competitive and to reduce the amount of debris by approximately 90% compared to expendable abrasive.Sponsored by Office of Engineering & Highway Operations R&D, Federal Highway Administration, under contract no.

Gels in the conservation of art / by Gels in Conservation (Conference)(2017 :London, England),issuing body.; Angelova, Lora V.,editor.(CARDINAL)784510; Ormsby, Bronwyn,editor.(CARDINAL)784509; Townsend, Joyce,editor.(CARDINAL)225747; Wolbers, Richard,editor.(CARDINAL)227957; International Academic Projects,organizer.(CARDINAL)272133; Tate Modern (Gallery),organizer.(CARDINAL)223480;
Includes bibliographical references and index."The growing importance of these materials--and their positive impact on conservation and environmental practice in terms of the use of fewer solvent-based, less toxic materials--represents one of the conservation profession's contributions to the green movement. Some of the gel treatments discussed provide significantly safer working conditions, and all of them seek to manage and reduce risks to artworks and objects undergoing treatment, helping to shape the path of future research in the specific area of cleaning fine art surfaces."--From back cover"The texts in this volume represent the current theory, research and practice on the use of gel materials for treatment processes in the conservation of objects of art and surfaces in the built environment. The range of gels featured includes those drawn from the biological, cosmetic and food industries, as well as emerging products created specifically for conservation purposes"--Website

Removal of lead paint from North Carolina bridges : final report / by Medford, W. M.,author.(CARDINAL)182998; North Carolina.Division of Highways,report addressee.(CARDINAL)162414;
Background -- Project preliminaries -- Project work activities -- Inspection and monitoring -- Project summaries -- Personal hygiene -- Abrasive reuse in asphalt -- Conclusions and recommendations -- Appendix 1. Contract specifications -- Appendix 2. Test reports -- Appendix 3. Air and personal hygiene reports -- Appendix 4. Asphalt design and related data."Two North Carolina Department of Transportation bridges containing old lead paint were successfully blast-cleaned and repainted in 1991. The work was accomplished by private contractors who were overseen by state highway inspectors. Abrasive blasting was conducted inside negative pressure enclosures to retain more than 90 percent of the debris. Results are presented in this report about the expendable silica abrasive and environmental, health and safety monitoring conducted throughout the project. The abrasive was utilized to manufacture a bituminous asphalt concrete"--Page i.
