PRESERVATION OF MATERIALS IN CONTROLLED HUMIDITY STORAGE
Abstract
A comprehensive study has been conducted covering the preservation of materials in controlled humidity storage. The main objective of the program was to evaluate all data or in formation on the subject available from Navy sources or any other sources and summarize such material into a series of reports. These sum maries were to cover all available details pertaining to the subject and to be followed by recommendations of further work necessary to cover such areas where data or information were found lacking. This report covers the non technical data and summarizes the information which has been made available on the program during these studies. During these studies, it has been found that in certain areas of the subject positive data are lacking while in other areas little or no data were available. However, positive information is available on the methods and costs of dehumidified storage, and studies have been initiated by the Bureau of Yards and Docks to develop positive information on efficacy and economics of dehumidified storage, and studies have been initiated by the Bureau of Yards and Docks to develop positive information on efficacy and economics of dehumidified storage of materials and equipment under the storage cognizance of that Bureau.
