The Korean Dendropanax lacquer, made from a natural resinous sap from Dendropanax orbifera Lev., was used as a golden and transparent varnish for the traditional artifacts (armor uits, helmets, arrowheads, etc.) to make them be brilliant golden color. The cured film of the acquer has excellent protective properties such as weatherability, water resistance, and nticorrosive. But, one of disadvantages is that takes a long time and much energy to fulfill curing the lacquer. The chemical constituents of the lacquer contained conjugated diene compounds s the photopolymerizable monomers. These monomers easily polymerized in sunlight to form olden-colored, hard-coating films in a short time. Photooxidation may be one of the most mportant reactions in the chemistry of the lacquer. Although the Korean Dendropanax Lacquer hould be dried to a thoroughly dry stage to achieve optimal film properties, curing with elevated emperatures may be required for the protracted curing time at atmospheric temperature. So we ntended to accelerate the curing rate of the lacquer by dual curing of thermal and radiation uring. The effect of thermal initiator on the thermal curing reaction was evaluated by monitoring he changes in double bond peak with FT-IR. Then the curing rate of the lacquer blended with hermal initiator and photoinitiator together was measured during dual curing using a RPT with V spot curing machine. Thermal initiator not only accelerated the curing rate but also improved he physical property. And the curing rate of the Korean Dendropanax lacquer was improved by ual curing method of thermal and UV curing. According to these results, the application area of he Korean Dendropanax lacquer could be expanded to surface coatings for electronic devices uch as mobile phones or electronics.

We investigated the high yield capacity of Hwangchil lacquer for selection and identification of major aromatic components of the selected trees as well. The Hwangchil lacquer showed the difference yields by different habitat, tree ages and individual character. The selected trees showed high yield capacity of Hwangchil lacquer. We also investigated the essential oil contents and its the main components to analysis the potent of mass propagation. The major compounds were 1,6-atadiene-3-ol., ${\alpha}-terpinene,\;{\alpha}-cubebene,\;{\alpha}-ylangene,\;{\alpha}-copane,\;{\beta}-elemene,\;germacrene-D,\;{\beta}-selinene,\;{\alpha}-selinene,\;{\delta}-cadinene,{\gamma}-cardinene$, germacrene B, germacrene D-4-ol. The most principle component was germacrene D among them respectively. However, the difference of relative content ratio of each major compound was showed by individuals, population and native areas in the selected trees.

Identification of coating film species from ancient coating materials is needed to maintaine their surfaces without loss of their original beauty for a long time and understand the historical background of manufacturing techniques. A pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS) was applied to identify the origine of films in ancient coating materials. The pyrolysis products, which reflect the source from which they originate were detected distinctively at $500^{\circ}C$. This is a rapid technique that does not require large amounts of sample or any sample preparation. Sesquiterpenes are a class of terpenes that consist of three isoprene units were identified as cadienes, selinenes, cubebenes from the raw material of dendropanax morbifera. On the other hand, alkanes(tetra~heptadecanes), alkenes (tri~heptadecenes), allkyphenols, catechols and fatty acids were detected from the raw material of the lacquer film. Based on these results, the origine of historic coatings artifacts was identified using py-GC/MS by comparison with their pyrolysis products.

Raw sap of essential oil in Korean Dendropanax lacquer was extracted with ethanol, and which was cured by using ROMP (ring opening metathesis polymerization, one of olefin metathesis). Curing behavior with subsequent film properties were studied and compared with conventional curing (under ambient conditions) and UV photo curing. The compositional changes of major ingredients in the lacquer before and after curing were studied by using GC-MS (gas chromatography mass spectrometry). ROMP-cured coating film showed higher gel contents (40%) as compared to those of conventional (8%) and UV curing (25%). ROMP curing with 2 wt% Grubbs' catalyst at $100^{\circ}C$ completed curing reaction within 2 h, which was much faster than that of conventional curing. The quality of coating film prepared with ROMP was more homogeneous and wrinkle-free as compared with that with UV curing. It was found that major ingredients of sesquiterpenes, such as ${\alpha}$-selinene, ${\beta}$-selinene, and ${\delta}$-cadinene were reacted in ROMP, as well as polyacetylenes.

The stimulated secretion of golden varnish sap by the infection of microorganisms on the bark of Dendropanax morbifera Lev. was observed in the natural habitats. Four candidate strains of such microorganisms(i.e., Sb1, Sb2, Sb3 and Sb4) were isolated from the bark of D. morbifera which was infected in natural. Of them, Sb3 and Sb4 strains showed stimulated secretion of golden vernish sap with the greatest stimulation by Sb4 strains. The yield of golden varnish sap from the bark of D. morbifera was boosted about 3.4~7.7 times by the inoculation of Sb4 strain in compassion with that collected from lacquer tree(Rhus verniciflua Stokes) by the traditional method. The mycelium color of Sb4 strain was grayish white. The optimum growth temperatures and pH were ranged from 30 to $35^{\circ}C$ and from pH 6.5 to 7.0.

Pottery filled with organic materials was excavated from the G-2 building site of Yongjangseong Fortress, Jingo, a relic of the Goryeo Dynasty. In this study, the characteristics of organic material were confirmed by a scientific analysis of organic material in pottery found at the palace in Yongjangseong, Jindo. In addition, it was intended to review the analysis method to identify the natural resin and to secure characteristic components(biomarkers) for each natural resin and use them as basic data in the future. The organic materials in the pottery were analyzed using attenuated total reflectance Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy(ATR-FTIR) and gas chromatography mass spectrometry(GC-MS). The infrared spectral characteristics were estimated to be natural resin, and biomarkers of organic materials were identified as sesquiterpene-based compounds(C₁₅H₂₄, MW 204) and derivatives. The lacquer(T.vemicifluum) is composed mainly of alkenes, alkanes, and catechol. Pine resin(P.densiflora), on the other hand, is primarily composed of diterpenoid(abietic acid, pimaric acid) and Whangchil(yellow lacquer) is identified to have sesquiterpenes(such as selinene, muurolene, calamenene) as its main components. So, the organic material in the pottery can be identified as Whangchil by comparing their compounds with modern resin materials from Dendropanax. morbifera that correspond with the results. Whangchil, which is exuded from the Dendropanax. morbifera, has been used as a natural coating materials since ancient times, and it has been confirmed that the characteristic components are well preserved even 700 years later. It can be assumed that the interior Whangchil was stored not for use as a coating, but rather for ritual purposes when the building was constructed, because the pottery was found near the cornerstone. Furthermore, based on simplified sample preparation using pyrolysis-gas chromatography mass spectrometry(Py-GC-MS), the thermal decomposition products were found to be similar to the characteristic components, suggesting that this method can be applied to the identification of natural resins used in historic artifacts.
