摘要 几年前，斯图尔特公司改变了一系列塑料容器的设计和材料，这些容器长期以来一直受到博物馆工作人员的青睐，用于预防性保存储存任务，特别是它们能够阻挡相对湿度的极端变化。从业者发现，新容器与旧容器相比并不理想。在有关替代容器的文献中，或者事实上，斯图尔特容器最初比其他容器更受青睐的原因，我们几乎找不到。我们进行了一项研究，测试旧聚乙烯和新聚丙烯斯图尔特容器以及替代品的性能。虽然所有测试的容器确实为改变外部相对湿度条件提供了某种屏障，但它们的表观有效性之间的差异并不大。人们发现旧式斯图尔特容器的性能始终优于其他测试容器，尽管性能好极了。评论选择容器的其他标准，...
Abstract A few years ago the Stewart Company changed the design and material of a range of plastic containers long favoured by museum staff for preventive conservation storage tasks, in particular for their ability to provide a barrier to extreme changes in relative humidity. Practitioners have found that the new containers compare unfavourably to the old style. Very little is to be found in the literature on alternative containers, or indeed, the reasons why the Stewart containers were preferred over others initially. A study was undertaken to test the performance of both old polyethylene and new polypropylene Stewart containers together with alternatives. While all the containers tested did provide some kind of barrier to changing external relative humidity conditions, the difference between their apparent effectiveness was not great. The old style Stewart containers were found consistently to out‐perform the others tested albeit by a very small amount. Comment on other criteria for choice of container,...
