Im Rahmen des DBU-Verbundprojektes „Dekontaminierng von Biozid-belasteten Kulturgütern mittels Plasma und Laser (DekoPla)“ wurde durch den Einsatz von kurz- und ultrakurz gepulsten Lasern eine Oberflächenreinigung und eine Chlorabreicherung von mit Hylotox 59 behandelten Holzoberflächen angestrebt. Probenmaterial wurde freundlicherweise vom Schlossmuseum in Sonderhausen zur Verfügung gestellt. Es handelt sich dabei um kontaminiertes Altholz mit natürlicher Biozidalterung. Darüber hinaus weisen die einst als Gemälderückseitenschutz und Originalbauteil der „Goldenen Kutsche“ fungierenden Prüfkörper leichte Verschmutzungen auf den Oberflächen auf. Das Holzschutzmittel Hylotox 59 beinhaltet die Wirkstoffe DDT (Dichlor-Diphenyl-Trichlorethan) und Lindan. DDT ist an den Holzoberflächen als mikrokristalline Ausblühung präsent. Zur Beurteilung des Erfolges des Lasereinsatzes wurde vor und nach der Laserbehandlung am gleichen Ort auf der Probenoberfläche ein Chlornachweis mittels Röntgenfluoreszenzanalytik (RFA) erbracht. Aus der Differenz der Chlorsignale und mit einer entsprechenden Normierung wird auf die Chlorabreicherung geschlossen. Die Ergebnisse dieser Messungen werden in Chlorverteilungsbildern veranschaulicht. Darüber hinaus erfolgte eine Dokumentation mit lichtmikroskopischen Aufnahmen.
Many wooden artworks are contaminated by DDT (dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane) as a result of a surface treatment by means of Hylotox-59©. The liquid preservative was used until the end of the 80s. DDT crystal structures are formed on the wood surfaces by the "blooming" of chlorine compounds. Contaminated waste wood with natural biocide ageing, gilded and wood carved elements of an old picture frame and wooden samples with paint layers were provided by the Schlossmuseum Sondershausen.
The removal of DDT was evaluated employing femtosecond and nanosecond laser radiation and cold atmospheric plasma technique using different working gases (air, nitrogen, and argon).
Before laser application, a chlorine measurement is done by X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analysis as reference. After laser processing, the XRF analysis is used again at the same surface position to determine depletion rates. Additionally, a documentation and characterization of the sample surface is done before and after laser and plasma treatment using optical microscopy. For plasma processing with various systems a chlorine measurement is done by gas chromatographic-mass spectrometry (GCMS) analysis.
For laser treatment a depletion of the chlorine concentration of 55-70% and 75% was achieved for 1064-nm nanosecond pulses and 800-nm femtosecond pulses, respectively. For the application of 30-fs laser pulses, no crystalline DDT residues remain on the sample surfaces. This holds also for the plasma processing with nitrogen as working gas.
A great number of Central Asian wall paintings, archeological materials, architectural fragments, and textiles, as well as painting fragments on silk and paper, make up the so called Turfan Collection at the Asian Art Museum in Berlin. The largest part of the collection comes from the Kucha region, a very important cultural center in the third to ninth centuries. Between 1902 and 1914, four German expeditions traveled along the northern Silk Road. During these expeditions, wall paintings were detached from their original settings in Buddhist cave complexes. This paper reports a technical study of a wall painting, existing in eight fragments, from the Buddhist cave no. 40 (Ritterhöhle). Its original painted surface is soot blackened and largely illegible. Grünwedel, leader of the first and third expeditions, described the almost complete destruction of the rediscovered temple complex and evidence of fire damage. The aim of this case study is to identify the materials used for the wall paintings. Furthermore, soot deposits as well as materials from conservation interventions were of interest. Non-invasive analyses were preferred but a limited number of samples were taken to provide more precise information on the painting technique. By employing optical and scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, micro X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, and Raman spectroscopy, a layer sequence of earthen render, a ground layer made of gypsum, and a paint layer containing a variety of inorganic pigments were identified.
