*“Collections Caretaker” newsletter put out by the Northern States Conservation Center has an article by Helen Alten and Cathy Hawks about Ethafoam that suggests asking manufacturers what gas was blown into the foam during manufacture. Note if it wasn't CO2 or nitrogen, beware of possible damage from off gassing. See below for an alternative product. (Taken from the RC-AAM listserv discussions 5/31/01 through 6/4/01.)
