Abstract

Recording materials are the valuable historical and cultural parts themselves as well as the methods for exchanging informations. Therefore, the appropriate conservation treatments should be conducted to the recording materials respectively. In case of the paper records, some particular conservation treatments such as a deacidification and a sterilization are necessary to prevent both bio and chemical deteriorations. In this research, the nano-scaled ZnO and MgO with 10~30nm size were prepared for the effective and stable conservation treatment of the paper records. Deacidification and sterilization effect of nano compounds were excellent and since nano compounds had almost 100% purity(free from Pb, Cd, As), the additional damages caused by the heavy and toxic metals should not be occur to the books and papers.

기록물들은 정보전달을 위한 수단일 뿐만 아니라, 역사적 문화적으로 매우 중요한 가치를 지니고 있어 각각의 기록매체에 적합한 보존대책을 수립하고 적용해야만 한다. 특히 종이기록물은 시간이 지나면 생물손상 및 화학적인 반응에 의해 열화가 진행되며, 안전한 보존을 위해서 탈산 및 살균기능 처리를 필요로 한다. 본 연구에서는 종이기록물의 효과적인 보존처리를 위하여 15~30nm 크기의 나노산화아연(ZnO)과 나노산화마그네슘(MgO)을 합성하였다. 합성한 나노화합물들을 종이기록물에 적용한 결과, 탈산효과와 항균효과가 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 합성된 나노화합물들은 구성성분이 100%(Pb, Cd, As 비검출)에 가까워 종이기록물에 탈산처리한 후 중금속으로 인하여 발생할 수 있는 기록물의 훼손이 없을 것으로 판단된다.
