Deep eutectic solvents: green solvents for the removal of degraded gelatin on cellulose nitrate cinematographic films
Cellulose nitrate (CN) has been used in the past as support for photographic negatives and cinematographic films. This material is particularly unstable and can undergoes severe degradation due to thermal, photocatalytic and hydrolytic loss of nitro groups from the lateral chain. Thus, to prevent the disappearance of the movies, their scanning and digitalization become a priority. However, CN bases degradation may prevent the scanning of the films. The decrease in pH, for instance, lowers the viscosity of gelatin, which becomes softer. This causes the formation of gelatin residues which stick on the back of the superimposed frames inside the reels creating a deposit. Traditional approaches to clean gelatin residues from the surface of CN bases include the mechanical removal with scalpels and the use of organic solvents (such as isopropyl alcohol). However, these methods are either slow and ineffective or could potentially damage the degraded CN supports. To overcome these drawbacks, we have evaluated the performance of three choline chloride and betaine-based Deep Eutectic Solvent (DES) formulations as alternative for the removal of gelatine residues from CN supports. These solvents are inexpensive (when compared to traditional solvents), easy to prepare, green (non volatile, safe towards the operators and the environment, and potentially recyclable), non flammable and have been previously proposed for the extraction of proteinaceous materials, but their use for the restoration of photographic negatives or cinematographic films has not been reported yet. Selected areas over the frames of a real deteriorated CN cinematographic film were cleaned comparing the DES performances with the ones obtained using isopropyl alcohol as an example of a traditional method. In particular, the tested DES formulations showed superior cleaning power compared to isopropyl alcohol and, at the selected application times, resulted capable to remove the gelatin residues without affecting the CN film supports.

Anomalous lifetime distributions and topological traps in ordering dynamics
We address the role of community structure of an interaction network in
ordering dynamics, as well as associated forms of metastability. We consider
the voter and AB model dynamics in a network model which mimics social
interactions. The AB model includes an intermediate state between the two
excluding options of the voter model. For the voter model we find dynamical
metastable disordered states with a characteristic mean lifetime. However, for
the AB dynamics we find a power law distribution of the lifetime of metastable
states, so that the mean lifetime is not representative of the dynamics. These
trapped metastable states, which can order at all time scales, originate in the
mesoscopic network structure.Comment: 7 pages; 6 figure
