Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立臺南藝術大學 === 博物館學與古物維護研究所 === 101 === Sculpture was blooming and a lot of theme parks were built in Taiwan. Among all the Taiwan’s museums, Ju- Ming Museum in northeastern Taiwan collects a large of metal sculptures, especially the brass-based arts. Sculptures in Taiwan were suffering serious corrosions because the weather in Taiwan was always raining and hot. For preserving and conserving these sculptures, we chose the accelerated corrosion’s test and control the length of time to observe color and weight on the sculptures in kinds of environments about high humidity, salt spray, wet sulfur dioxide and sulfur dioxide, etc. For studying methodically,we took advantage of Scientific Instruments such as microscopy, XRD analysis and surface 3D-scans to evaluate the results of accelerated corrosions test and organized basic data of climate reasons from different areas in Taiwan. Finally, the analytic results had told us the truths, the chief reason of metal sculptures’ corrosion in Taiwan was high humidity. We should dry the water on the metal’s surface diligently.
