Additional Notes:
Dutch ..... Merknaam voor een kneedbaar, zelfsluitend plastic vlies, bestaand uit polyolefinen en paraffine, dat zuurstof en koolstofdioxide doorlaat maar resistent is tegen verschillende veelvoorkomende reagentia. Dit vlies wordt gebruikt als vochtbarrière voor kortetermijnopslag, en in de conserveringswetenschap voor het repareren van scheuren en als tijdelijke achtergrond voor ivoren miniaturen. Tevens wordt het getest als kleefmiddel voor de stripvoering van twintigste-eeuwse schilderijen.
