Original Abstract

An effective and fast way of restoration and preservation of archeological artifacts is described. The process is based on using RF low-pressure hydrogen plasma in which the artifacts are treated for several tens minutes, usually in more steps. The value of integral intensity of OH radicals monitors the reduction in plasma. Temperature, which depends on using regime (continual or pulse), plays the important role during the process. Our results show that pulsed regime can be effectively used in the corrosion removed process.
