Abstract | ||||
This paper explores a successful treatment to reduce stains from embroidered dyed tablecloth which is on display of prince Mohammed Ali Manieal Palace, Egypt. Removing stains from dyed embroidered heritage textiles requires a novel alternatives to traditional cleaning systems. Textiles have a long history of exposure to deterioration factors caused by humanity factors that have compromised the appearance and the condition of these unique embroidered textiles. Removing Ink-Pen and aged animal glue stains from dyed textiles continues to be a major conservation challenge. Before carrying out any cleaning or conservation treatments and processes always take a close look at how the different components might react with textiles as bleeding dyes are a principle concern to textile conservators, some of cleaning treatments can cause extensive damage to dyed textile objects so any cleaning methods or process require a lot of attention and patience to prevent any loss or damage , tests were carried out by using Scanning electron microscopy-EDX to identify the type of fiber and to determine degradation Caused by changes in the surface morphology of the textile sample and FTIR spectroscopy allowed the identification of animal glue stain . The digital microscope demonstrated that gellan gum poultice is successful in reduction ink and animal glue stains. Since cross-linked gel cleaning methods and green materials were combined and introduced to the cleaning treatment systems, innovative and safe opportunities are especially provided for cleaning dyed textiles. | ||||
