Abstract
The problems of high concentrations of iron salts in waterlogged wood and how they affect the wood's conservation are considered. Insoluble iron salts block early wood vessels and impede the penetration of polyethylene glycol (PEG) solutions; they also serve as a mineral consolidant for the outer layers. The effects of different PEG grades and concentrations used in a freeze-drying system are examined (see AATA 21-459 for first part of study).
