对开罗埃及博物馆的一个希腊-罗马埃及纸箱进行了技术和分析研究(TR:20.12.25.6-SR:5/290)。它属于米的儿子Kolanthes,写在通俗。本研究中使用了补充技术;光学显微镜,X射线荧光光谱法(XRF),傅里叶变换红外光谱法(FTIR),以及使用电子显微镜结合能量色散X射线(SEM-EDX)进行的扫描。纸箱的分层结构是独特的,因为它包括:彩色层,方解石基石膏层,混合泥浆和锯末支撑层和方解石石膏层。可预测的纺织品层不存在;相反,在纸箱的某些区域添加了小块纺织品。此外,泥和锯末层在纸箱行业并不常见。所用的颜料颜色为黄色、蓝色、红色、绿色、橙子、粉红色、白色和黑色。黄色鉴定为雌黄(As 2S 3)和黄赭石(针铁矿α-FeO中心点OH +粘土矿物),蓝色如埃及蓝[Cuprorivaite(CaCuSi 4 O 10)],粉红色,如茜红色(蒽醌成分),红色为红赭石(aFe(2)O(3)+粘土矿物),橙子为雌黄和赤铁矿的混合物(α-Fe 2 O 3),绿色为孔雀石[CuCO 3 Cu(OH)(2)]和氯铜矿[CuCl 2·3Cu(OH)(2)],以及白色为石膏(CaSO 4中心点2 H(2)O)和方解石(CaCO 3)。黑色颜料,磁铁矿(Fe 3 O 4)首次在古埃及纸箱的颜料调色板中被检测到。在橙子干土层上进行镀金,方解石基石膏层和多色层中的粘合介质被确定为动物胶。
Technical and analytical investigations were carried out on a Graeco-Roman Egyptian cartonnage from the Egyptian Museum in Cairo (TR: 20.12.25.6-SR: 5/290). It belonged to Meter son of Kolanthes, as written in Demotic. Complimentary techniques were used in this study; the optical microscope, X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and a scan made using an electron microscope coupled with an Energy Dispersive X-ray (SEM-EDX). The layered structure of the cartonnage was unique, as it comprises; a polychrome layer, a calcite-based plaster layer, a mixed mud and sawdust support layer and finishing calcite plaster layer. The predictable textile layer did not exist; instead, small patches of textile were added in some areas of the cartonnage. Besides, the mud and sawdust layer was not a common practice in the cartonnage industry. The pigment colours employed were yellow, blue, red, green, orange, pink, white and black. Yellow was identified as orpiment (As2S3) and yellow ochre (goethite alpha-FeO center dot OH + clay minerals), blue as Egyptian blue [Cuprorivaite (CaCuSi4O10)], pink as madder (anthraquinone components), red as red ochre (aFe(2)O(3) + clay minerals), orange as an admixture of orpiment and haematite (alpha-Fe2O3), green as malachite [CuCO3Cu(OH)(2)] and atacamite [CuCl2.3Cu(OH)(2)], and white as gypsum (CaSO4 center dot 2H(2)O) and calcite (CaCO3). The black pigment, magnetite (Fe3O4) was detected for the first time in the pigment palette of ancient Egyptian cartonnage. Gilding was applied over an orange bole layer and the binding medium in both the calcite based plaster layers, as well as the polychrome layers, was identified as animal glue.
