Cyanoacrylates

I work in string instrument repair, conservation and construction in
private practice. I am interested in any information about
cyanoacrylate glue testing done by conservation scientists or others
who have done tests on CA glues. I am primarily concerned with
finding information about the life span of CA glues used to repair
wooden objects. My main concern is to  find information about how
long it takes cyanoacrylate glues to breakdown and release a wood to
wood bond. Any  testing or information that deals with archival
issues in general would be helpful.
