Evaluation of Fungicidal, Anti-sapstain and Termiticidal Efficacy of Dan-Chung Treated Blocks

단청처리재의 방부.방미.방의(흰개미)효력 평가

This study was carried out to evaluate the fungicidal, anti-sapstain and termiticidal efficacy of commercial Dan-Chung which are currently being used for painting to decorate and to provide durability with structures of temples. Two binders (Polysol and Gelatine), and eleven pigments (Iron Oxide Red, Lead Red, Toluidine Red, Chrome Yellow, Titanium Dioxide, Ultramarine Blue, Chrome Oxide Green, Permanent Black, Cyanine Green and Ho-bun(Chalk)) were applied for the evaluation. The fungicidal and anti-sapstain activity of each pigment were depended on the types of binders. When the Polysol was used as a binder, the fungicidal efficacy of Toluidine Red treated specimen was close to the standard value (above 80) with grater than 70 against to two wood decay fungi (T. palustris and T. versicolor). The anti-sapstain efficacy of Lead Red treated specimens was excellent against to three sapstain fungi (P. funiculosum, T. viride and R. nigricans), and that of Ultramarine Blue treated specimens was also excellent to T. viride. The other pigments had little efficacy to these micro-organisms. Although there were some different trends of the effectiveness depending on the types of binders, the anti-termite effectiveness of Chrome Oxide Green and Chrome Yellow was outstanding to termite tests.

본 연구는 현재 고궁이나 사찰 등지에서 사용되고 있는 단청안료의 방부·방미·방의 효력을 평가하기 위하여 실시하였다. 포리졸과 젤라틴 두 종의 교착제와 석간주, 장단, 삼홍주, 석황, 백분, 군청, 하엽, 수흑, 뇌록, 금진주박 및 호분을 공시안료로 한 실험에서 각 안료의 방부·방미 효력은 교착제의 종류에 의해 효력의 차이가 크게 나타났다. 포리졸을 교착제로 사용시 삼홍주는 부후개떡버섯 및 구름버섯에 대한 방부효력치가 70이상으로 방부성능 기준에 가장 근접하였으며, 장단 처리재가 P. funiculosum, T. viride, R. nigricans에 대해, 군청 처리재가 T. viride에 대하여 우수한 방미효력을 나타냈으나 그 외 안료의 효력치는 떨어지는 것으로 나타났다. 흰개미 실험에 있어서도 교착제에 따른 차이는 있었으나 하엽 및 석황의 처리재가 방의효력이 우수한 것으로 나타났다.
