  • The ship Vasa breaks down slowly. The hull of the ship has irreversibly weakened. The Vasa Museum uses the help of researchers to create a support structure that will support the hull without interfering with the museum visitors' experience of the powerful ship, and for the ship to be retained for future generations. In order to construct the support structure, one must understand how the chemistry in the wood affects the strength. The Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research has helped funding the research and has produced this film that tells about the work.

    Hello, I am a Prof. from Germany. The reason for the breakdown of the structure of the Vasa may be due to the oxidation of the polyethyleneglycol, which has been used for the preservation of the wood. Polyethyleneglycol forms peroxides. This has been established by a colleague of mine (Prof. Theodor Eckert) many years ago. A solution of the problem may be the use of substances, which capture the radicals.

    Borates have been added to propylene glycol and proven to be an ideal wood preservative in historic vessels. Lots of different things have been going on here, galvanic action, oxidization, hogging etc.

    So why not devise a plan to neutralize the acid and determine some solution to permeate the wood to stabilize it. Build a big tank and soak it till it stable is 15 years or so.

      Having seen it with my own eyes, I can tell you that they are doing no such thing. Nothing has been "modified", it still looks as it would have when it was due to set sail, only not so complete.
