The study utilized advanced techniques to investigate the nanostructured species present in the wood of the Mary Rose. The findings contribute to the preservation and conservation of this historical artifact.
The Mary Rose, the flagship of Henry VIII's navy, sank in 1545. The ship was salvaged in 1982, and since then, efforts have been put in place to preserve the ship, which is threatened by acid attacks from sulfur-containing species present in the wood. We here use synchrotron-based computed tomography total scattering methods to identify the nanostructured species present in Mary Rose wood. Knowledge of the distribution and chemical nature of these species opens the way
