Evidence

"As the Annals are comprised of large format books made of Hanji paper and printed on with non-aggressive inks (Oriental inks), risk for oxidative degradation is minor."

Remarks

The Oriental inks used in the large-format books of the Joseon Dynasty are characterized by the authors as 'non-aggressive,' which contributes to the low level of oxidative degradation in the cellulose substrate (p. 4628).
