Gum anima

Gum anima also called anima, anime, or animé, is a kind of gum or resin.[1][2] According to an 1897 dictionary, the term could be used to refer to "several resins" known as elemi; copal produced by Hymenaea verrucosa;[nb 1] a product of Hymenaera courbaril; or "Indian copal" produced by Vateria indica.[2] The 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica, in contrast, mentions only that it can be used to refer to products of H. courbaril and H. verrucosa.[3]

As of 1804 it was divided into two kinds, western and eastern.[1][4] According to an 1897 dictionary, the eastern gum came first, and the western gum was called by the same name because of its similarity to the western.[2] The western gum anima flows from an incision in a tree called courbaril;[1][4] it is transparent,[1][3] and of a pale brown color color[3] similar to frankincense.[1] It has a sweeter smell than the eastern gun anima.[4] As of 1804 it was notably sourced from Brazil.[4]

The eastern gum anima was distinguished in 1728 into three kinds: the first white; the second blackish, in some respects like myrrh; the third pale, resinous, and dry.[1] At some time before 1804 it was commonly brought to Europe from Ethiopia.[4]

All kinds of anima were used in perfumes around 1728, because of their agreeable smell; they were also been applied externally against colds.[1] The 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica notes that the product of H. courbaril was used in perfumes at that time.[3]

As of 2017, gum anima is often added to sandarac-based alcohol varnishes to prevent brittleness caused by the sandarac.[5] Shellac and elemi are also often used for this purpose.[5]
