   One project which CCI will be carrying out is  the practical application
of shrink-wrapping collections of archaeological iron - both treated and
untreated objects.  ...  One factor we would be looking at is
the amount of heat involved in shrink-wrapping, ie: if this would affect
metal structure, given the short duration of time (much shorter than
heating objects to get a wax coating applied).
 
How would the various home vacumn wrapping systems for foods work in comparison - no heat at all except to the plastic material for sealing?
