Abstract
This special storage case is designed for the preservation of sensitive organic materials by statically maintaining low levels of oxygen and a pre-determined relative humidity. The case is useful in preventing deterioration caused by gaseous and particulate air pollutants, fluctuations in relative humidity levels, biological infestations (microorganisms and insects) and thermally and photolytically induced oxidation.
