    Abstract

    Plastic has been widely used in modern artworks' materials due to its merits of process ability andmass production. In the country, value of plastic artifact is increasing but the field of plastic study is limitedto industrial purpose. In this study, Identification methods of plastic were performed by SPME-GC/MS andpyrolysis-GC/MS using trace of samples. As a result of identification using SPME-GC/MS, aromatic compoundswere identified from polyvinyl chloride. And alkane compounds were identified from polyethylene, andpolypropylene. Aromatic compounds were identified from polystyrene, and diethylene glycol appeared inpolyurethane based on polyester was identified from polyurethane. As a result of identification using pyrolysis-GC/MS, aliphatic alkenes compounds and phthalate(DEHP) were identified from polyvinyl chloride. Aliphaticalkenes compounds and phthalate(DIBP) were detected from polyethylene. 1-hexene, etc., were detected frompolypropylene, aromatic compounds were identified from polystyrene, and methylene diphenyl diisocyanate whichis polyurethane basic material was confirmed from polyurethane. This study suggested that non-destructive SPMEand pyrolysis-GC/MS are useful to identify compounds particularly polystyrene and polyurethane. These twoanalytical methods were expected to be applied for identification of unidentified plastic artworks beforeconservation treatment.
