Clinic on plastics

Classic plastics clinic
Edinburgh, April 2-3, 1997

The Edinburgh International Science Festival takes place in April in
Scotland, and will include a classic plastics clinic. Organised by
Dr Anita Quye at the National Museums of Scotland and the Historical
Polymer Research Scientists Group jointly with the Plastics
Historical Society, the event is free of charge and open to
conservators, curators, collectors and historical plastics
enthusiasts. There will be a series of lectures on history of
plastics, degradation, conservation and current research topics.
Also available will be experts in identification of plastics
materials (supported by Nicolet) and on conservation techniques for
plastics items in museum collections. For further details, contact
