Abstract

The discoloration of traditional paintings could be induced by various chemical reactions of inorganic pigments due to temperature, humidity, light and air pollution. In this study, we made artificial samples including azurite and malachite as inorganic pigments using the traditional method on hanji called 'Korean paper'and investigated the artificial aging process occurred by the interaction between pigments and environmental factors. It was found that the azurite was influenced by the humidity of weathering tests and the salt fog of salt spray tests according to XRD and TGA results. However, it was shown that the malachite was chemically changed by the ultraviolet radiation of weathering tests and UV radiation tests according to color difference and TGA results.

전통회화의 변색은 온도, 습도, 빛, 그리고 대기 오염에 의한 각종 화학 물질들과 사용된 무기 안료와의 화학반응에 의해 일어나기도 한다. 본 연구에서는 조선종이라고 불리는 한지에 석록, 석청 무기 안료를 사용해 전통방법으로 시험편을 제작하고, 인위적인 노화시험을 통해 안료와 환경 요인의 상호 작용에 의한 노화과정을 조사하였다. 석청은 XRD 및 TGA 결과로부터 내후성 시험의 습기와 내염수 시험의 염무에 의해 영향을 받는 것을 알 수 있었다. 하지만 석록은 내후성 시험이나 내자외선 시험 중 주로 자외선에 의해 화학적 변화가 일어나는 것을 색차 및 TGA 결과로부터 볼 수 있었다.
