Deterioration during burial. In certain burial conditions, there may be exceptional preservation of objects. Organic materials(e. g. wood, skin and leather, feathers, bone, ivory, textile, horn, antler, baleen) are best preserved in very wet, very dry, frozen or low-oxygen burial environments. In these conditions, the materials are protected from biological activity(e. g. bacteria, mould, insects, animals). 3, record 1, English, - site%20capping

Record number: 12, Textual support number: 1 CONT
The sand and gravel were carefully washed from the interior of the scoop, and the wood surface was cleaned with an ultrasonic dental scaler and soft brushes. The PEGcon method (which employs software developed jointly by Parks Canada and CCI) was used to evaluate the condition of the wood and to calculate suitable polyethylene glycol (PEG) solutions for treatment. The cleaned scoop was then soaked in PEG solution as directed by PEGcon; the wood absorbed the PEG and the cell walls were protected against shrinkage and collapse. 1, record 12, English, - PEGcon%20method

Les polyéthylèneglycols (PEG) sont des polymères solubles dans l'eau dont le poids moléculaire varie en fonction du nombre de groupements d'oxyde d'éthylène n dans la molécule. [...] Les PEG 200 et PEG 400 sont liquides à température ambiante. Leur viscosité leur permet une rapide diffusion dans les matériaux organiques humides. Ils jouent un rôle de stabilisateur dimensionnel vis-à-vis de l'humidité, après séchage. La concentration en PEG 200 ou PEG 400 dans les solutions d'imprégnation des bois gorgés d'eau n'excède pas 20 % sinon la surface de l'objet après séchage serait trop hygroscopique. Elle est de 30 % pour le traitement des cuirs gorgés d'eau. 2, record 12, French, - proc%C3%A9d%C3%A9%20PEGcon
