  4. 18. A GREENER SOLUTION Investigating the potential use of Green Solvents to remove cellulose nitrate lacquer from silver objects

    Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för kulturvård

    Författare :Borén Evelina; [2022-07-05]
    Nyckelord :Sustainable Conservation; Green Solvents; Cellulose Nitrate; Lacquer; Coating; Silver;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the performance of non-hazardous solvent substitutes, so called “Green Solvents", for the removal of aged and unaged cellulose nitrate lacquer from silver surfaces. Literature research and preliminary tests resulted in four solvents of interest: ethyl acetate, ethyl lactate, propylene carbonate and dimethyl carbonate. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Weaving a Story of Collaboration: The Case of the New Cotton Project : A Circular Business Ecosystem working towards a Circular Economy in the Fashion and Textiles Industry

    Magister-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Företagsekonomiska institutionen
