Abstract

A wide range of materials has been used for gap filling in wooden objects but very little information exists in the literature on their suitability. In this paper 10 gap filling materials were tested for their mechanical properties, pH value and the degree of contraction. The results of the study showed that two types of the fill gave high mechanical properties and pH values were near to those of wood. Two of the tested gap fillers were chosen for application on two selected archaeological wooden artifacts.
