“…This is obvious since the polymerization properties of the cyanoacrylates are dependent on the surface applied. [ 33 ] When applied onto the plastic surface, the initiator diffuses into the surface of the plastic and initiates the polymerization in the plastic surface, thus providing an anchor for the polymer. [ 34,35 ] This phenomenon is potentially much stronger if the initiator has a high affinity to the plastic surface.…”

Cyanoacrylate glues are a renowned synthetic tissue sealant that cures rapidly through polymerization at room temperature, felicitating medical glues to treat skin wounds and surgical openings. Despite a wide range of cyanoacrylates available, only 2‐octyl cyanoacrylates (OCA) provides the best biocompatibility. In this study, the polymerization and adhesive properties of 2‐octyl cyanoacrylates (OCA) are explored in the presence of a highly biocompatible and biochemically inert polymer, poly(ethylene glycol) polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (PEG‐POSS). The effect of PEG‐POSS on the polymerization of OCA is examined on a plastic surface and over pig skin. A peel‐test is performed to evaluate the strength of OCA adhesive properties between two pieces of pig skin samples. Additionally, thin films of OCA are prepared using different fillers and evaluated for tear test. The results reveal that when applied on the plastic or pig skin, PEG‐POSS initiated polymerization in OCA yields a high molecular weight OCA polymer with much better adhesive properties compared to commercially available cyanoacrylate adhesives. The relative change in the molecular weights of OCA compared to commercially available cyanoacrylate bioadhesives such as Dermaflex is much higher. The pig skin peeling test shows that OCA needs higher peeling force than Dermaflex.

“…The coating starts to turn yellow over time due to photooxidation reactions and it becomes unable to protect the surface from external factors. Even more, these coatings become so unstable as they start to crack over time with the effect of light and heat (Davison 1984, Winther 2015. Fig.…”

Metal objects were used for various purposes like in the production, decoration, and painting of metallic coins, kitchenwares, and as structural components from ancient ages to the present. Metal extraction and processing ability became one of the important factors to determine the development level of society. For this reason, repairing and protecting the ancient artifacts buried underground or in an aqueous environment that recovered from the archaeological excavations and historical sites is extremely important to protect the history and cultural heritage of society. Historical artifacts are very fragile against environmental factors after their removal from the dig sites and thus rapid intervention procedures are required. Furthermore, historical artifacts exhibited without an application of a protective coating can easily corrode at an increased rate against atmospheric conditions over time. Therefore, developing new approaches for the preservation of metallic objects of cultural heritage has significant importance. It is necessary to know the type of metal to be processed as the coating to be developed for protection will be determined according to the type of metal. Primarily, metal surfaces must be cleansed from the corroded layer followed by developing and applying a structure able to isolate the metal from the environment in order to prevent corrosion. Various materials such as waxes, oils and greases, polymers, glasses and glassy enamels, metallic, and organic coatings have been used to develop corrosion-resistant coatings. Soluble corrosion inhibitors have also been used, which can promote the spontaneous formation of a protective barrier film on surfaces. The structures to be used in the protection of the ancient artifacts must have specific features:• must not cause a change in color and has to preserve authenticity in visual appearance,• easy to apply,• low cost,• reversibility in some cases, i.e. easy to remove from the surface,• environmentally friendly, non-toxic. In this review, the methods commonly used for the protection of archaeological artifacts are examined and their advantages and disadvantages are stated.
