Abstract
The cover feature shows a banjo mandolin undergoing an intense degradation process at the upper plastic bridge in contact with the strings. Steel strings strongly corrode in the environment of decomposing cellulose nitrate (CN) as a gas mixture containing corrosive compounds is emitted from the CN. Goethite and nitrate containing corrosion products form on the steel strings in the presence of gaseous CN degradation products. This analytical study supports musical instrument collections in their research on conservation. More information can be found in the Research Article by Vera Milena de Bruyn-Ouboter and co-workers (DOI: 10.1002/cplu.202500099).
封面特征显示了班卓曼陀林在与琴弦接触的上部塑料桥上经历了强烈的退化过程。钢串在分解的硝酸纤维素（CN）的环境中被强烈腐蚀，因为从CN中释放出含有腐蚀性化合物的气体混合物。在气态CN降解产物存在的情况下，钢串上形成针铁矿和含硝酸盐的腐蚀产物。这项分析研究为乐器收藏的保护研究提供了支持。更多信息可以在Vera Milena de Bruyn-Ouboter及其同事的研究文章中找到（DOI: 10.1002/cplu.202500099）。
期刊介绍：
ChemPlusChem is a peer-reviewed, general chemistry journal that brings readers the very best in multidisciplinary research centering on chemistry. It is published on behalf of Chemistry Europe, an association of 16 European chemical societies.
Fully comprehensive in its scope, ChemPlusChem publishes articles covering new results from at least two different aspects (subfields) of chemistry or one of chemistry and one of another scientific discipline (one chemistry topic plus another one, hence the title ChemPlusChem). All suitable submissions undergo balanced peer review by experts in the field to ensure the highest quality, originality, relevance, significance, and validity.
