Waterlogged Leather: Preservation And Conservation Techniques
Authors : Hamira Mohamed .
Abstract
Waterlogged leather presents unique challenges for preservation and conservation due to its susceptibility to deterioration. Effective treatment typically involves a controlled drying process, often initiated by submerging the leather in a polymer solution to stabilize its structure. Following this, a glycerin and ethanol bath can be employed to maintain flexibility and prevent shrinkage during drying. Techniques such as ultrasonic cleaning may also be utilized to remove contaminants without damaging the leather. Ultimately, the choice of method depends on the specific condition of the leather and the desired outcome for its preservation.
