Abstract | ||||
There are some archaeological bones resulting from some archaeological excavations, and they have many different manifestations of damage such as brittleness, fragility and weakness, and through the aging of some samples that have been strengthened with In this study, nano-hydroxyapatite concentrations of 1% and 2% + nano-paraloid concentration of 3% dissolved in acetone as an archaeological bone-strengthening substance . Visual assessment and several analytical techniques were used for the evaluation of the selected strengthening material .The analytical techniques are transmission electron microscope (TEM), color change and Pressure strength. The results obtained from transmission electron microscope showed that grain size of nano- Titanium Dioxide with nano paraloid was ranging from 51 to 73 nm. | ||||
