While each of these materials is complex and challenging in their own way, metallic objects always stood out to me as particularly unique. Each alloy (for example, brass or bronze) exhibits radically different degradation processes. Even two bronze objects in similar conditions can react to time and to the elements in very distinct ways. This makes the treatment of metallic objects very challenging, but also very interesting!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-attachment-id=\"21995\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.marinersmuseum.org\/img_0009\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.marinersmuseum.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/IMG_0009-scaled.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1920,2560\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;1.6&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;iPhone 12 mini&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1714743554&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.2&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;250&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.0166666666667&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_0009\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Amelia Hammond dry ice blasting a 16th Century cannon. &lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.marinersmuseum.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/IMG_0009-225x300.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.marinersmuseum.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/IMG_0009-768x1024.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.marinersmuseum.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/IMG_0009-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"A person kneels next to a small cannon, holding the nozzle to a dry ice blasting apparatus shaped like a long, thin tapering rectangle with a hose that extends off-screen.

The Batten Conservation Complex is the largest laboratory that works with marine archaeological metals, with around 210 tons of metal in treatment.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only is it the biggest laboratory, but the conservators here also conduct state-of-the-art research, establishing evidence-based protocols for methods like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marinersmuseum.org\/2023\/06\/dry-ice-blasting-in-the-tank-farm\/\">dry ice blasting<\/a>, and boldly exploring new frontiers in the conservation field, including developing methods to treat acidified timbers using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marinersmuseum.org\/2020\/06\/saving-the-princess-carolina-acidification-research-and-future-treatment-options\/\">nanoparticles<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-will-i-do\"><strong>What Will I Do?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Throughout the course of my internship, I will work on metallic objects while learning more about the other materials treated by the Conservation team. You can come see us working in the Batten Conservation Complex\u2019s clean laboratory space, where I\u2019ll be working on a part of a Worthington pump from the USS <em>Monitor <\/em>shipwreck. This part of the pump is called the water end and includes both cast iron and copper alloy elements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"674\" data-attachment-id=\"21994\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.marinersmuseum.org\/mnms-2001-003-039g56_dt03\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.marinersmuseum.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/MNMS-2001-003-039G56_DT03-scaled.jpeg\" data-orig-size=\"2560,1684\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"MNMS-2001-003-039G56_DT03\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Figure 3.
