Original Abstract

Article examines the possibilities and conditions of the hydrogen plasma treatment application for the iron artefacts conservation from the conservation-restoration approach. Treatment of the large volume objects (kind of "mass conservation techniques") or big archaeological object was studied and some experiments were performed to understand the changes in material composition and migration of corrosion activators (chlorides, sulphates). Specific groups of samples were treated to describe the whole process – pure artificial minerals, model samples, real archaeological samples. Electron microscopy and XRD techniques were used to understand the transformation of ferrous compounds.
