A Study on Corrosion Processes of Archaeological Glass from the Valencian Region (Spain) and its Consolidation Treatment

Historical organic dyes: a surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectral database on Ag Lee–Meisel colloids aggregated by NaClO4

“…Its application on fabrics, which began in Europe in the 18th century, further increased during the 19th century. [20] It was also employed as a dyestuff for furniture, food additive and for medical purposes in China, mostly because of its anticoagulant properties. [21] Petals of safflower can provide red and yellow dyes: the red pigment, carthamin, is water insoluble at neutral pH but can be brought into solution under alkaline conditions, while the yellow colouring matters can be extracted in water.…”

A comparison of natural and experimental long-term corrosion of uranium-colored glass

“…The processes of glass alteration and degradation are generally studied using three approaches: (i) investigation of prolonged natural alteration of natural glass analogues, such as archeological or basaltic glass [1][2][3][4][5] (ii) experimental studies of glass alteration using enhanced dissolution tests at elevated temperatures [6][7][8][9] and (iii) theoretical calculations and glass corrosion modeling [10][11][12].…”

Iridescence in Ancient Glass: A Morphological and Chemical Investigation

“…ESEM analysis of the glass texture would suggest that the weathering on the surface originated from the inner part of the glass. 25 However, the surface of the glass exhibits a multilayered structure which is responsible for the iridescence effect and the shelly crust. The shelly layer is visible under ESEM as a radial structure (Fig.…”
