Abstract

ABSTRACT Although BEVA 371 film is almost synonymous with leather and skin repairs because of its flexibility and ease of use, Lascaux adhesives 498HV, 303HV (formerly 360HV), and 498 20-X have also been used for years on these types of object treatments with successful results. Not only do they adhere well to leather and skin, but also to entomological specimens and other related organics. Lascaux adhesives are easy to handle, remain flexible when set, and adapt to different situations. This article explains multiple application methods: direct wet-application, as a heat-activated and solvent-activated coated lining, pressure-sensitive tape, and as a bulked adhesive shapeable fill material. Because original substrates are often thin or associated with areas of loss, suitable lining materials and bulking agents are also reviewed. Three case studies – a vegetable tanned leather doctor's bag, pinned butterflies, and a taxidermy golden eagle – demonstrate how the materials can be used in multiple treatment steps.

Lascaux粘合剂在物体保护中的应用：皮革、皮肤和昆虫标本的三个实际案例研究

摘要尽管BEVA 371薄膜由于其灵活性和易用性几乎是皮革和皮肤修复的代名词，但Lascaux粘合剂498HV、303HV（前身为360HV）和498 20-X也已用于这些类型的物体处理多年，并取得了成功。它们不仅能很好地粘附在皮革和皮肤上，还能粘附在昆虫学标本和其他相关有机物上。Lascaux粘合剂易于处理，在设置时保持灵活性，并适用于不同的情况。本文介绍了多种应用方法：直接湿涂，作为热活化和溶剂活化的涂层衬里，压敏胶带，以及作为膨胀的粘合剂可成型填充材料。由于原始基质通常很薄或与损失区域有关，因此还对合适的衬里材料和填充剂进行了审查。三个案例研究——一个植物鞣皮医生包、别蝴蝶和一只动物标本金雕——展示了这些材料如何用于多种治疗步骤。
