Cameo glass

== Description ==
A decorative two-layered glass in which one layer is carved or etched to produced a decorative pattern. Cameo glass was made by ancient Romans and Egyptians using hand tools. It was made in China in the 18th century (Peking cameo glass) and became popular in Bohemia, France and England in the mid to late 19th century.

Camger 1-146 Polyglase Environmental Coating

==Description==
[Camger Coating Systems Inc.] A protective coating formulated with an aliphatic urethane and poly(propylene glycol). Camger 1-175 is designed to provide a barrier coating to minimize off-gassing. The preparation does not contain any solvents and the dried coating is resistant to abrasion, chemicals and hydrolysis. 
Camger was originally made in two different formulations: Polyglase 1-175 and 1-146. 
1-175 was the formulation that was originally developed and tested for conservation use, but 1-146 was very similar in formulation and cost. For a period the company kept 1-146 but discontinued the 1-175, then later restarted production of 1-175. 
See Camger 1-175 for more information.

Camphene

== Description ==
A colorless, crystalline material. Camphene is a terpene type compound obtained from camphor oil or synthesized from turpentine. Camphene was used as a camphor substitute and as an insecticide. The name camphene has been mistakenly used as a synonym for burning fluid, which is a 19th century commercial lamp oil containing a turpentine and ethanol mixture that burned brightly but was potentially explosive.

Camphor

== Description ==
An aromatic crystalline compound with a sweet smell. Camphor is obtained from the steam distillation of the leaves and wood of the camphor laurel tree, Cinnamomum camphora, native to southeast Asia. It forms a white waxy solid when purified by steam distillation and sublimation. Since the 1930s camphor has also been made synthetically. Camphor has been used as an insect repellent and as a vapor phase corrosion inhibitor for metals. It was also used in Celluloid as a plasticizer for cellulose nitrate. Camphor sublimes slowly as room temperature; once vaporized it can react with and soften many plastics.

Canada balsam

== Description ==
A crystal clear, resinous exudate from the Canadian balsam fir, Abies balsamea, native to the northeastern United States and Canada. Canada balsam was introduced into Europe in the 18th century. It was used for a short time as a varnish, but was found to bloom in moist conditions and darken with age. Canada balsam is currently used to permanently mount microscopy specimens. Its softening point is slightly above room temperature. Canada balsam is also used as an adhesive for optical lenses.
