Abstract

This study analyzes paper characteristics and printability by reproducing ‘Gojeong-ji’ from the early Joseon Dynasty. By referring to existing relics, literature, and previous studies, ‘Dak-ji(Paper mulberry)’, ‘Gojeong-ji(Mixed paper mulbarry & Rice straw) and Gojeong baekto-ji(White clay in Gojeong-ji) were prepared. It was confirmed that the white clay, which is a filler, affects density and thickness, whiteness and opacity, and that the mixture of rice straw and paper mulberry fibers affects the decrease in strength. As a result of checking the printability by the area ratio of the extracted ink, the order of excellent printability is ‘Dak-ji’, ‘Gojeong baekto-ji’, ‘Gojeong-ji’. When printing ink by paper, the deviation was small in the order of ‘Gojeong baekto-ji’, ‘Gojeong-ji’, ‘Dak-ji’. This is because white clay used as a filler created a uniform background and affected the improvement of printability.
