Study on the Specific Effects of Corrosion Processes on Ancient Bronze Artefacts

Abstract

The paper presents the cases of the corrosion processes which take place on starting from the usage period when the primary patina is being formed and when the secondary patina starts, than continuing with the archaeological site where the contamination patina is obtained under the influence of the pedological processes. The paper is a review from the specialised literature and from the contributions of the authors. There has been used the direct analysis with optical instruments, electron microscopy and EDX.
