Metal is a material that has exerted a lot of influence on the development of human cultures, and has closely connected with our life from the past to the present. Types of metal we have used from the prehistoric times are varied, and iron relics take the largest percentage of metal relics excavated in our country. The biggest threat to the existence of iron relics ranging from excavated relics to the ones that are transmitted is the process of corrosion, and physical removal has been used the most for removing corroded oxides. For details for removal of corrosion oxides, this thesis aimed to research on the chemical corrosion oxides remover that protects parent material of iron relics but treats corrosion oxides only. For safe and effective removal of corrosion oxides of iron relics, this study was conducted aiming at finding the possibility of and optimized composition for removal of iron relics corrosion oxides by manufacturing new acid, alkaline and neutral oxides removers and changing their composition variously, exploring the possibility by applying the agents to modern relics. The results of this study are as follows: First, the acid solution removed only some part of corrosive substance oxidized on the surface of metal specimen. Second, the application of each of alkaline and neutral solution resulted in remaining black-colored corrosive substance, but it was removed when the quantity of the solution and the duration of application are increased. Third, All the three solutions did not cause any damage to parent material in the course of application, and showed the result that they are capable of removing unstable oxide layer while protecting parent material and stable corrosive layer as the solutions would be able to deal with situation by a relic only through the control of concentration of solution and duration of application.

Around Yeongsan river basin, there are Yeongkwang Gundong, Muan Inpyeong Tombs, Muu Gusan-ri Tombs and Hampyeong Guksan remain from which a lot of iron artifacts were excavated. Among them, 6 iron artifacts were chosen, and their microstructures were analyzed. As a result, Iron artifacts were produced sponge iron by the low temperature reduction process and a part of microstructure have the possibility that steel made by decarburizing. And also, by tempering the parts which need high strength, the iron artifacts had high strength and by distributing the weakness of the tempered structure to the nearby untempered parts, their breaking was prevented and they had the durability. These skills were used then. Especially these skills were found to be used in the 2nd century by high skilled people because an iron axe excavated at Yeongkwang Gundong of 2nd century by the historical record showed that the skill was used. Also microstructures were found to show the possibility that the iron technology was inherited to the late 5th century. When producing iron artifacts made of sponge iron containing small amount of carbon, that was made by the production process repeating molding, carburizing, heat treatment and hammering.

The resistance for atmospheric corrosion of the conventional 5 epoxy resins (Araldite rapid, Araldite AW 106, Araldite SV 427, Devcon, and CDK), those were used to restoration of the iron relics, were investigated in this study. Temperature, UV light, and water were chosen for the factors of the atmospheric corrosion. The drastic voluminous changes of the epoxy resins were found at the temperature range between $40^{\circ}C$ and $70^{\circ}C$ After UV exposure, the colors of the epoxy resins were severely changed. In case of the indoor exposure the chroma value(${\Delta}E$) of the resins were less than 2, which showed a little changes of the colors. The result of the water contact angle test was Araldite rapid>AW 106>Devcon>SV 427>CDK. Although the contact angles of the resins were reduced by UV exposure, SV 427 was stable comparatively.

본 연구에서는 KaOH, $K_2CO_3$, Sodium, 그리고 1차 이온수 용액의 $Cl^-$ 이온 추출량과 부식생성물의 생성순위, 부식물 생성, 그리고 부식물 제거에 관하여 관찰하였으며 이 연구로 아래와 같은 결과를 얻었다. $Cl^-$ 이온 추출량에 대한 실험 결과 NaOH은 탈염 초기에는 Cl- 이온을 잘 추출시켰으나 탈염 횟수가 증가하면서 $Cl^-$ 이온의 추출량이 급감하였다. 또한 유물 중량 변화에도 감소폭이 가장 심하였다. $K_2CO_3$은 NaOH나 1차이온수 용액과 비교해 보면 이 방법은 탈염처리동안 $Cl^-$ 이온을 꾸준히 추출시켜 주었으며 다른 탈염용액에 비해 유물 중량변화가 거의 관찰되지 않았다. Sodium 용액은 $K_2CO_3$ 용액과 마찬가지로 탈염처리 동안 $Cl^-$ 이온을 꾸준히 추출시켰으며 다른 탈염 용액에 비해 $Cl^-$ 이온 추출량이 가장 많았다. 하지만 이 용액은 약품 내에 불순물인 $Cl^-$ 이온을 $3\~5\;ppm$을 기지고 있어 보존처리자가 탈염처리를 할 때 좀 더 신중하게 생각해야 할 것 같다. 1차 이온수 용액은 부식인자가 $Cl^-$이온을 완전하게 제거해주지는 못하였지만, pH가 $7.5\~7.9$로 다른 탈염 용액에 비해서 전위차가 낮으며, 별도로 탈알칼리 처리를 하지 않아도 되기 때문에 유물손상은 극소화할 수가 있다. 따라서 이 용액은 부식이 매우 심한 철제 유물이나 균열이 많은 주조 철편과 같은 유물을 처리할 때 적절한 용액이다. 부식생성물 관찰에서는 출토 철기 유물에 생성된 부식물은 주로 인철광$(\gamma-FeOOH)$, 침철광$(\alpha-FeOOH)$, 적금광$(\beta-FeOOH)$, 그리고 자철광$(Fe_3O_4)$이다. 인위적 부식에서는 전부 인철광의 부식물이 생성되었고 자연적 부식에서는 모두 침철광의 부식물이 생성되었다. 특히 철제 표면에 자연적으로 생성된 공식 녹을 XRD 분석한 결과 적금광으로 동정되었다. 이런 모든 시편들을 각 탈염방법에 따라 탈염처리한 후 XRD와 SEM-EDS으로 분석한 결과 인철광과 침철광은 어떠한 변화도 보이지 않았고, 다만 적금광으로 동정된 시편만이 잔존하지 않았다. 철기 제작별 $Cl^-$ 이온 추출량과 탈염효과에 대한 비교 실험은 이온 크로마토그래피 분석 결과와 마찬가지로 단조 철제유물이 주조 철제보다 $Cl^-$ 이온을 많이 가지고 있었으며, 탈염 처리 후에는 $Cl^-$ 이온은 전혀 발견되지 않았다. 이상의 결과 $K_2CO_3$와 Sodium 용액은 탈염처리에서 가장 적합한 탈염처리 용액으로 알수가 있었으며 특히 어떠한 탈염 용액으로 유물을 처리한다 해도 철제유물에 생성된 부식물은 제거되지 않는다는 것을 알게 되었다. 따라서 보존처리자는 유물 표면의 부식 상태만을 보고 처리하기 보다는 철기제작물로 고려하여 처리하는 것이 필요하다. 또한 금속에 부식을 야기시키는 $Cl^-$ 이온과 부식물을 완전하게 제거하여 탈염처리를 하는 것이 유물 부식을 최대한 지연시킬 수 있는 것이라 생각된다.

Icheon Seolbong fortress is located in Saum-dong, Icheon, Gyeonggi-do Province that its date is founded as 4th century of Bakjae dynasty after excavation by Dankook university museum. Excavated artifacts show various kinds such as earthenwares, ceramics, metal artifacts and so on. Especially many iron artifacts were founded in where Bakjae earthenwares were found that it indicates iron artifacts were manufactured in Bakjae Dynasty. From 6 iron sickles, called Beollat and Millet, samples were taken to examine mircostructures and from the results used iron material, shape-forging, steel-making process, heat treatment were investigated. From this late 4th century Bakjae dynasty iron manufacture profess was established. From the result, different treatment were used in different area of the sickles according to the its use. Beollats were quenched in blade and it was used for special purpose that require Intensity. Millats did not have special treatment that it was used to cut rice plant and plant. Used material was steel, steel was previously made by certain steel-making process. It is formed to produce iron ware and the area where intensity is required heat treatment was employed to make it strong. From the investigation it is derived that iron ware manufacture process in Bakjae dynasty is steel making$\rightarrow$shape-forging$\rightarrow$and heat treatment.
