Description
Summary:The data here described are the results of a survey sent to conservators to discover the range of materials being using to fill gaps in wooden objects, and to assess how popular hydroxypropyl cellulose and paper pulp were in regards to this. The survey was created using Survey Monkey, a free online survey tool. The complete dataset is available from UCL Discovery in Excel and CSV format. It is hoped that these survey results can be used by conservators to inform their work on wooden objects and inspire experimental work that will demonstrate the suitability of different materials for the purpose of filling wood.
