Certified methodology for textile deposition

The methodology was created for the neeeds of museum workers handling and depositing textile artefacts. The methodology is focused on depositories where textile artefacts are stored. The content is focused on traditional folk clothing from Moravia originating from the period of 1850-1950 and the methodology is specific in this way. It is necessary to emphasize that the folk textile (clothing) was stored in its own way which has to be kept and which some attention should be paid to

Certified methodology (II) for identification of textile and non-textile components and their conservation (e-learning)

The methodology deals with the conservation of textile, textile components and non-textile parts and components as well. A complete conservation process is described in details including some of the processes presented in "Certified methodology for conservators of textile focused on artefact survey and its documentation"

Certified methodology to create permanently sustainable environment for storage of traditional clothing components in depositories

The methodology was created to identify risks related with the environment where artefacts of cultural heritage are handled or deposited. It is intended for museum and open-air museum workers handling textile clothing components and other textile artefacts. The aim was to create a tool to monitor and measure contamination of the environment where artefacts are handled to reduce risks, damage or lifetime decrease of the artefacts as a result of an improper storage conditions. Following described procedures will enable to monitor and decrease the pollution with the aim to protect both exhibits and health of the workers handling them

Vysoce kvalitní a snadno regenerovatelný osobní filtr

Proper respiratory tract protection is the key factor to limiting the rate of COVID-19 spread and providing a safe environment for health care workers. Traditional N95 (FFP2) respirators are not easy to regenerate and thus create certain financial and ecological burdens; moreover, their quality may vary significantly. A solution that would overcome these disadvantages is desirable. In this study a commercially available knit polyester fleece fabric was selected as the filter material, and a total of 25 filters of different areas and thicknesses were prepared. Then, the size-resolved filtration efficiency (40-400 nm) and pressure drop were evaluated at a volumetric flow rate of 95 L/min. We showed the excellent synergistic effect of expanding the filtration area and increasing the number of filtering layers on the filtration efficiency; a filter cartridge with 8 layers of knit polyester fabric with a surface area of 900 cm(2) and sized 25 x 14 x 8 cm achieved filtration efficiencies of 98% at 95 L/min and 99.5% at 30 L/min. The assembled filter kit consists of a filter cartridge (14 Pa) carried in a small backpack connected to a half mask with a total pressure drop of 84 Pa at 95 L/min. In addition, it is reusable, and the filter material can be regenerated at least ten times by simple methods, such as boiling. We have demonstrated a novel approach for creating high-quality and easy-to-breathe-through respiratory protective equipment that reduces operating costs and is a green solution because it is easy to regenerate.Správná ochrana dýchacích cest je klíčovým faktorem pro omezení rychlosti šíření COVID-19 a zajištění bezpečného prostředí pro zdravotnické pracovníky. Tradiční respirátory N95 (FFP2) se nedají snadno regenerovat a vytvářejí tak určitou finanční a ekologickou zátěž; navíc se jejich kvalita může výrazně lišit. Žádoucí je řešení, které by tyto nevýhody překonalo. V této studii byla jako filtrační materiál vybrána komerčně dostupná pletená polyesterová fleecová tkanina a bylo připraveno celkem 25 filtrů různých ploch a tlouštěk. Poté byla vyhodnocena účinnost filtrace s rozlišením velikosti (40-400 nm) a pokles tlaku při objemovém průtoku 95 l/min. Prokázali jsme vynikající synergický efekt rozšíření filtrační plochy a zvýšení počtu filtračních vrstev na účinnost filtrace; filtrační patrona s 8 vrstvami pletené polyesterové tkaniny o ploše 900 cm(2) a rozměrech 25 x 14 x 8 cm dosáhla účinnosti filtrace 98 % při 95 l/min a 99,5 % při 30 l/min. Sestavená filtrační sada se skládá z filtrační patrony (14 Pa) nesené v malém batohu spojeném s polomaskou s celkovým tlakovým spádem 84 Pa při 95 l/min. Navíc je opakovaně použitelný a filtrační materiál lze jednoduchými metodami, jako je vaření, nejméně desetkrát regenerovat. Prokázali jsme nový přístup k vytvoření vysoce kvalitních a snadno dýchatelných dýchacích ochranných prostředků, které snižují provozní náklady a jsou ekologickým řešením, protože se snadno regenerují
