Abstract
A mould for encapsulating millimetric solid samples, which has the purpose of encapsulating millimetric solid samples, in particular from, but not limited to, artistic, historical and cultural heritage assets. By observing the samples through a microscope, whether stratigraphically (layer view) or using another necessary orientation, the mould makes it possible to assess and identify the manufacturing material of such heritage assets, such as pigments, dyes, varnishes and metallic laminates. The purpose of studying stratigraphic samples is to identify the manufacturing technique used to apply layers, for example, to a sculpture or painting, and subsequent interventions (superposition of new layers) over time.
Claims3
A mold for encapsulating samples of millimeter dimensions comprising:
- cavities having two different cavities, wherein each cavity that complements each other in a two stages of an encapsulation process,
- wherein dimensions of the two cavities reduce an excess of a resinous material,
- wherein a half of a resin capsule of the cavities called ART-cap.1/2 includes a wall (1) to standardizing positioning of the sample of millimeter dimensions on a same point (6), which allows systematizing and standardizing a position of the sample of millimeter dimensions, facilitating the sanding process, necessary to clearly visualize the sampled by an optical microscope.
