The difference between cast bronze sculpture and glass fiber reinforced plastic sculpture and the maintenance of cast bronze sculpture

We can see all kinds of sculptures everywhere in our lives. Among them, cast bronze sculpture is a relatively common one. For cast bronze sculptures, people may still have a little understanding of it. Let me introduce you to cast bronze sculptures and glass steel. The difference between sculptures and the maintenance of cast bronze sculptures. 1. The difference between cast bronze sculptures and glass fiber reinforced plastic sculptures. 1. The difference between cast bronze sculptures and glass fiber reinforced plastic sculptures. First of all, we can distinguish the materials used by them. The materials used for cast bronze sculptures For copper, the copper used for cast bronze sculptures is generally bronze, red copper, and brass; while glass fiber reinforced plastic is a new type of resurrection material, which uses synthetic resin as the matrix material and glass fiber and its products as a composite material composed of reinforced materials. Called FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic), it is lighter than steel, like the fuel tanks and pipes on jet aircraft, which are made of glass fiber reinforced plastics. To a certain extent, it can reduce the weight of the aircraft. 2. Production process: cast bronze sculptures It is through the use of high-temperature resistant molds such as fire-resistant plaster molds or sand molds, generally the inner and outer layers, and the copper water is poured into the mold from the skylight, and the mold is cooled. Extrusion, compression molding, winding molding, etc., it uses resin and other chemical additives to be mixed and chemically reacted inside the mold. 3. Cost price The material used for cast copper sculptures is copper, and the price of copper is more expensive than FRP , The thickness of the cast wall of cast bronze sculptures generally reaches 3-8mm, and the production process of cast bronze sculptures is more complicated, so, relatively speaking, the price of cast bronze sculptures will be higher. Imitation Bronze Sculpture 4. The preservation time of cast bronze sculptures is very different from that of FRP sculptures. For cast bronze sculptures, its cast wall is generally 3-8mm thick, hard and corrosion-resistant, and has a long life. If it is properly maintained, the preservation time can be up to A hundred years or more; while the glass fiber reinforced plastic sculpture is made of organic materials, the weight is relatively light, and the preservation time is not long.The general preservation time like outdoor is about 7 to 10 years, and the indoor one will be longer. 2. Maintenance of cast bronze sculptures 1. Environmental maintenance. The more important aspect of cast bronze sculptures is the environment. The environment in which it is located is kept dry and free of dust and air pollutants! The temperature of the greenhouse where it is located is controlled at 18℃-24 ℃, the humidity is 40%-50%. 2. Defense. When we maintain the copper sculpture, we must learn to defend against some harmful chemicals from the outside world, such as acids, chlorides, etc.! It is also necessary to move the copper sculpture Porters must wear cotton with their hands than gloves to move, and the reason for not letting everyone directly touch the sculpture with their hands is to prevent the sweat on their hands from corroding it. 3. Cleaning When cleaning the cast bronze sculptures, be careful not to be careful. Be cautious, be sure to use a clean and soft cloth to wipe away the dust. For some grooves in the sculpture that are not easy to wipe with a cloth, use a brush or vacuum cleaner to blow away the dust. 4. Polishing is suitable for long-term placement and For the Xiamen cast bronze sculptures that appear dull, do not wipe them vigorously with a cloth when rubbing them, but lightly rub them with a fine cotton cloth, mainly to achieve the polishing effect , It can also make the protective wax layer on the surface of the cast bronze sculpture bloom again. It would be better if you add some special polishing materials, but the materials need to be purchased before they can return their unique colors. The above content is the introduction of the difference between cast bronze sculptures and glass fiber reinforced plastic sculptures and the maintenance of cast bronze sculptures brought to you by the Beijing sculpture factory.
