About the service

LEC-PH was born in 2018 through the infrastructure project in the call of the State Subprogramme of Research Infrastructures and Scientific-Technical Equipment (State Plan I+D+I 2017-2020) with the title “Dotación del Laboratorio de Estudios y Conservación de Materiales del Patrimonio Histórico (LEC-PH) del Instituto de Investigaciones Marinas de la Universidad de Cádiz (INMAR)” (reference EQC2018-004947-P).

LEC-PH distributes its work in two main thematic lines, divided in two sites:

  • Line of Study of Materials (INMAR, University Campus of Puerto Real).
  • Line of Conservation and Restoration of Materials (Simón Bolívar Multipurpose Building, University Campus of Cadiz).

These have several lines of work: treatment in baths for desalination processes, electrolysis treatment, control and measurement of baths, safety in treatments and materials, cleaning treatment, consolidation and control, conservation of materials by means of a cold chamber and analysis of material microstructures.

Equipment of the lines offered:

A) Microstructural Analysis of Materials:

  • Stereoscopic microscope with floor stand.
  • Digital microscope
  • Metallographic microscope
  • Hot compression mounting
  • Micro hardness tester
  • Precision cutter
  • Grinding and polishing machine

B) Control and measurement of preservation baths:

  • Titrator for chloride measurement and potentiometric titrator.
  • Table top and portable multiparametric equipment

C) Electrolytic treatments

  • Electrolytic tanks with multi-parametric systems and control.

D) Cleaning, consolidation and control treatments:

  • Micro Sand Blasting
  • Micro drill
  • Micro chisels
  • Ultrasonic ablative equipment

E) Desalination and stabilization treatments:

  • Desalination tanks with control of temperature, agitation and gas suction parameters.
  • Vacuum pump
  • Ultrasonic baths
  • Demineralization system
