“…An additional reason for deterioration appears in figure 7 due to the water passage through the porous materials generating salt precipitation, crystallization and efflorescence (seen in a salty white layer over the moist region in many sample areas) and the production of a considerable pressure after hydration and that occupies larger spaces that lead finally to cracking, detachment and material loss (Adamiak et al, 2016). Moreover, wet-to-dry cycles, frequent heating and cooling stimulate chemical reactions that will eventually weaken the metal structures and lead to cracking, loss of materials, reducing the mechanical capacity and deterioration over time (Griffin, Indicator & Koestler 1991;Reyes et al, 2010;Emaraa & Korany, 2015). These porous surfaces are usually suitable passages for inhabitant hyphae (Verrecchia, Dumont & Rolko 1990).…”

“…The result of the characterization of the surface corrosion using XRD has been shown in Figure 4a and Figure 4b. X-ray spectrometry methods such as XRD, XRF, and SEM-EDX/EDS are very suitable for the analysis of inorganic material in the field of conservation and heritage restoration (Emara and Korany, 2016;Theile et al, 2014;Fernandes et al, 2013;Watkinson, 2013;Van-Grieken and Worobiec, 2011). Before carrying out conservation, the material to be conserved must be examined, so it is more appropriate to determine conservation techniques by considering the costs and resources (Argyropoulos et al, 2013).…”

This study aims to conserve the underwater cannonball before storing it in a museum. Removing the protective crust of iron artifacts without the correct and proper method can cause rapid corrosion. To prevent damage, artifacts must be conserved in the right solution. Conservation was conducted in four stages during this research project. The first stage is the identification of weathering, and the second stage is the analysis and characterization of the corroded surface using a microscope, XRD (X-ray diffraction), XRF (X-ray fluorescence), and SEM (scanning electron microscopy). The third stage is the passivation/deactivation process, achieved using sodium hydroxide, soapy water and kaffir lime water. The fourth stage is stabilizing/coating the iron cannonball underwater heritage materials as soon as possible using microcrystalline wax to prevent further corrosion. This stage should solve the conservation problems associated with the object so that the object can last for a long time. Dry and wet-activated corrosion was characterized by applying XRD to the obtained mineral akageneite. The akageneite minerals were actively corroded and contained high concentrations of Cl atoms revealing dry and wet activated corrosion of 66.60% and 64.96%, respectively. After being conserved with several steps and NaOH, soapy water and kaffir lime water, inactive corrosion was observed. Based on the results of the analysis performed with XRF, the cannonball does not contain Cl, and the Fe content is 98.99%. The conservation method used in this research is excellent and appropriate for conserving cultural heritage materials, including underwater iron cannonballs.

The present research aims to identify the possibilities of rehabilitation of building facades in the centre of Chisinau, through the use of high-performance materials, use of high-performance technologies in execution, reduction of facade renovation costs, etc. In the process of organising the rehabilitation works of historical buildings of architectural value, we are dealing with the following: the value of the rehabilitation works of a historical building is very high, the duration of the rehabilitation is important, the attitude of the society is insufficient, the lack of strategies for the rehabilitation of buildings at the municipality level. In order to achieve this objective, we propose to research the following tasks: definition of the concept of rehabilitation of buildings in the Historic Centre of Chisinau; legislative, normative assurance of rehabilitation of historical heritage in the Republic of Moldova; analysis of the situation in Chisinau on the example of historical buildings with limestone finishes and examination by non-destructive methods of facades; solutions for rehabilitation of facades of historical buildings by comparing two types of technologies. In conclusion, emphasis will be placed on the choice of the most efficient method in terms of material, technology and cost.
