洛阳唐城花园西周贵族墓出土部分青铜礼器的科学分析与研究

本文对洛阳唐城花园西周贵族墓出土的11件青铜礼器进行了金相组织、扫描电镜能谱(SEM-EDS)成分分析、离子体发射光谱法(ICP-OES)化学成分分析。结果显示该批青铜礼器合金类型为锡青铜和铅锡青铜,锡青铜为主体;金相组织除典型的铸造组织外,还发现受热均匀化及退火组织。综合研究表明,这几件青铜容器曾经过加热,应为实用器。

Scientific Analyses and Researches on Bronze Ritual Vessels Unearthed from Tombs of Western Zhou Aristocrats in Tangcheng Garden Community,Luoyang

SEM-EDS and ICP-OES were applied in the analyses of metallurgical structure, morphology and chemical composition of 11 bronze ritual vessels unearthed from tombs buried with Western Zhou aristocrats discovered in Tangcheng Garden Community in Luoyang. The results show that the bronze used is mainly an alloy of copper and tin;there is also an amount of bronze compounded of lead, tin and copper. Apart from presenting typical cast structure, the metallurgical structure indicates that the vessels were uniformly heated and annealed. Comprehensive researches have shown that these bronze containers used to be heated and they should have been utilities.
