Abstract
In this study, VOCs of black gel pen inks was screening to identify individual characteristic of gel pen inks. Detected VOCs was total 20 species(isopropylalcohol, 2-methyl-2-propanol, 2-butanone, hydrazinecarbothioamide, benzeneacetic acid (ethyl ester), benzeneacetic acid, dimethoxymethy-silane, 2,2-dimethoxybutane, tetrahydro-2-methyl-furan, 1,2-ethanediol, silicic acid (tetramethyl ester), 1,2-propanediol, propyleneglycol, 3-ethyl-3-hexanol, 1,1-dipropoxy-propane, 2-butoxy-ethanol, 2,2'-oxybisethanol, 1-butyl-benzene, 2-pyrrolidinone, 2-(2-butoxyethoxy)-ethanol). We detected 2,2-dimethoxybutane (3.02~47% ratio) and tetrahydro-2-methyl-furan (1.19~52.19% ratio), 1,2-ethanediol (52.83~95.84% ratio). In case of manufacturer, manufactured ink was able to discriminate between Japan and Korea by distinct characteristics (Japan: 1,2-ethanediol, 52.83~95.84%, Korea: 1,2-propanediol, 76.17~93.51%). The results of this study indicated that distinct characteristic about manufacturers and brands could make a classifring tool of inks for identification of between gel pen inks.
