[A] process that impregnates paper with an alkaline reserve to neutralize the active acid in the paper substrate and act as a buffer to neutralize acids produced in the future.  2, record 2, English, - deacidification

The development of a viable mass deacidification process has long been considered the answer to the problems of conservation in the library field. Acid, inherent in the untreated wood pulp, introduced into the paper in the manufacturing process, or caused from contact with polluted air, breaks the links in the cellulose polymer chains causing the fibers to break down; the paper becomes discolored and brittle, losing both permanence and durability very quickly.... Deacidification does arrest the acid attack and, if adequate buffers are left in the paper, prevents it from recurring, but does not restore embrittled and discolored books to their original state.  3, record 2, English, - deacidification

[Toute] restauration devrait permettre d'obtenir une stabilisation mécanique et chimique ainsi qu'une meilleure lisibilité du document, et permettre d'en faciliter la consultation et la mise en exposition. Quelques-uns des traitements, les plus courants, sont le dépoussiérage, le nettoyage à sec, le marouflage (action qui consiste à coller du papier ou de la toile sur un support pour le consolider), le traitement aqueux, la désacidification et la pose de renforts.  3, record 2, French, - d%C3%A9sacidification

Magnesite floors. The binder in these "Hand Composition" floors is magnesium oxychloride. This binder is formed in laying the floor, when magnesium oxide is combined with a strong solution of magnesium chloride. Fillers, which are added to this binder, are asbestos, cork, sand, wood flour, marble dust, talc, leather, etc. This great variety of fillers produces magnesite floors having variable porosity, resiliency, appearance and durability.  1, record 3, English, - magnesite%20floor

Wood densification. Wood waste can be dried and pressed into pellets and logs, thereby making transportation more economic than for loose waste, and also rendering the wood more suitable for combustion in certain furnaces. Densification itself is only one step in the process of recovery of energy from wood waste.  1, record 5, English, - wood%20densification

Record number: 5, Textual support number: 1 OBS

The process of making densified wood consists of filling or closing the voids in the cellular wood structure, accompanied by compression under heat. This process adds hardness, increased strength, greater durability, and dimensional stability.  3, record 5, English, - wood%20densification
