A method of preparation of synthetic ignorgaic coating on copper (patina) has been presented . An Eh--pH diagram was constructed for the present Cu-H2O-SO$_4$ system using the most recently available thermodynamic data. In the path of the patination at room temperature the general behaviour of copper in acidic copper sulfate solutions with potassium chlorate as an oxidizing agent appeared to follow those predictable in this Eh-pH diagram. In the presence 0.05 molar cupric sulfate at a temperature of about 28$^{\circ}C$ a green brochantite (CuSO$_4$$.$3Cu(OH)$_2$) layer was formed on copper sheet in 20 days. In a solution having an initial pH of 3.5 the development of a brochantite coating has been observed to take place in two stages. In the first, a layer of cuprous oxide formed on the copper at a relatively rapid rate. In the ensuing step the outer layer of cuptrite was oxidized at much slower rate to form brochantite. The syntetic coatings appeared to consist of crystal-lites of brochanitite growing perpendicular to the cuprose oxide surface. The outer tips of the -crystallites were reasily broken off and gave to the layer a rather chalky character. Underneath, at the brochantite Cu$_2$O interface, however, the green layers were firmely attached. The effect of reagent concentration , solution agitation , and moderate temperature increase were investigated to improve the quality of coating. So also in a qualitative way were the effect of light.

Several comparisons of treatment methods for stabilizing corroded Chinese coins at Shin-an marine sites were investigated. In aqueous solution, the seexamination were performed to show whether chloride ions are gradually removed, patination changes are acceptable and archaeological details are identified. The six desalting methods showed that the orders of removal of chloride ions were ranked electrolysis (electolyte : 0.1M sodium sesqui.)> 5% sodium dithionite(1M NaOH)> 5%sodium dithionite(0.1M sesqui.)> 5% citric acid> 0.1M sodium sesquicarbonate>deionized water. As the examinations of moisture absorption to the relative humidity has compared for bronze disease, all of desalted coins for the R.H 53% and R.H 75%except to R.H 95% are showed serious bronze disease.

In the midst of increasing importance of modern cultural assets, especially, most modern bronze objects are exposed to outdoor environment, and as the objects are corroded steadily due to environmental factors the objects lost their original colors on the surface. We performed artificial patinas on the bronze sample per each color of red, black and green and checked cuprite and tenorite which are detected from actual bronze corrosion by analyzing the components. In addition, we applied the existing corrosion removal methods of grinder and sand blaster on a similar sample of bronze mirror per injection pressure and performed comparative analysis on the result with Nd:YAG laser. As a result of Nd:YAG laser cleaning artificial patina from bronze samples, all of the patinas were removed by laser wavelength 1064 nm better than 532 nm. Upon applying to a similar sample of bronze mirror, the artificial patina could be selectively removed from substrates without surface damage when Nd:YAG laser was conducted other than the existing removal method, and so it showed the possibility of application.

공공 예술 조각품과 야외 조형물에 대한 관심과 함께 미술품 보존 관리의 중요성이 높아지고 있다. 야외 조각작품의 경우, 장기간 대기 중에 노출되어 대기오염물과 자연재해 등의 이유로 부식과 열화 등의 손상이 발생하게 되는데, 국립현대미술관 야외조각공원에 전시중인 김찬식의 '정' 역시 부식으로 인해 작품표면의 파티나층이 손상되었다. 따라서 상태조사, 표면연마, 재파티네이션, 왁스코팅 등의 보존처리를 진행하였으며, 그 결과 원형에 가까운 복원을 이룰 수 있었다. 작품의 재질특성에 대한 분석 결과, 구리, 주석, 아연, 납으로 주조된 미술 공예용 청동임을 확인하였다. 작품 표면연마 후 관찰되는 용접, 균열, 밝은 얼룩의 재질 특성 중, 용접부위는 바탕금속보다 구리를 제외한 나머지 주요원소의 함량이 비교적 적은 경향을 보였으며, 밝은 얼룩은 주석과 납의 함량이 13.0 wt%, 10.5 wt%로 바탕금속(주석: 7.0 wt%, 납: 4.4wt%)보다 높게 측정되었다. 또한 미세조직 관찰결과, 작품의 제작은 열처리를 비롯한 인위적인 가공이 가해지지 않은 주조기법이 사용된 것으로 추정되었다.
