The stabilization of archaeological iron objects: Mössbauer and XRD studies

Description

Archaeological iron objects that were buried in the ground for long times often corrode rapidly once they have been excavated. We have used Mössbauer spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction to elucidate some specific problems of the corrosion of such objects and gain insights that may help to improve the methods of conservation.
