Abstract
Materials for conservation bindings should be resistant to aging and extremely robust. After introducing the wooden board binding (RESTAURO 1/1999) and the quarter-joint case (RESTAURO 2/1999), the third and last part of this series deals with the sewing thread to be used and mechanical testing.The chemist Manfred Anders has been a lecturer in textile chemistry at Reutlingen University of Applied Sciences since 1990, project manager at the Steinbeis Transfer Centre for Textile Processing in Reutlingen since 1993, and at the Centre for Book Preservation (ZFB) in Leipzig since 1997. Prof. Dr. J. A. Szirmai started as a medical researcher and later worked as a bookbinding artist, book conservator, and bookbinding researcher. Alfred Wellhäuser, book conservator, was head of the Tübingen University Library restoration workshop.
