I can give you an insight into using inert gas to preserve your meteorites. First its expensive - your aquarium will leak - very small molecules - I blanket all my adhesives with Nitrogen and it works to preserve the liquid adhesives from oxygen and moisture. I use argon as its heaver than nitrogen but a tab bit more expensive. The simplest method and most practical and economic is use an emitter in a closed display case.

Hi I was wondering if it could be a good idea to make small "aquariums" for storage of "rusters", and fill them with nitrogen and finally seal them. :-) Lars ______________________________________________ Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list ______________________________________________ Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
