Abstract

This study is concerned with the stability of liquid crystal forming emulsifier with localized depend on change of pH using liquid crystal forming agent of advanced company. The liquid crystal emulsifying agent was localized using Sugar Crystal-LC (bio-tech Co., Ltd., Korea), and comparative samples were measured by using Nikkomulese-LC (Nikko Camicarls, Japan) and Alacel-LC (Croda Camicarls, UK). Liquid crystal formation was confirmed microscopically to show the formation of liquid crystal structure at acidic (pH=4.2), neutral (pH=7.0) and alkaline (pH=11.7). The particles of the liquid crystal were observed with a polarizing microscope according to the stirring speed. The stirring time was all the same for 3 minutes with a homo-mixer, and the stirring speed was increased to 2500 rpm, 3500 rpm and 4500 rpm to observe the liquid crystal state. As a result, it was found that the Korean surfactant was more stable and clear liquid crystal structure was formed than the two foreign acids. In the case of the UK in acid zone, the emulsion particle size was uniform and unstable. In the case of Japanese surfactant, it has similar structure and performance to those of localized Korean. It was found that Korean surfactant had superior emulsifying performance in acid zone compared with foreign products. It is possible to develop various formulations such as liquid crystal cream, lotion, eye cream, etc. using Sugar Crystal-LC emulsifier as an application cosmetic field, and it is expected that it can be widely applied as emulsifying technology for skin care external application in the pharmaceutical industry and the pharmaceutical industry as well as the cosmetics industry.

이 연구는 국산화 한 액정형성 유화제에 대하여 선진사의 액정형성제를 사용하여 pH변화에 따른 안정성에 관한 것이다. 국산화한 액정유화제는 SugarCrystal-LC ((주)바이오뷰텍, 한국)를 사용하였고, 비교시료는 Nikkomulese-LC (니코캐미칼즈, 일본)와 Alacel-LC (Croda 캐미칼즈, 영국)를 사용하여 액정형성의 생성력을 실험하였다. 액정형성은 산성 (pH=4.2)에서, 중성 (pH=7.0) 그리고 알칼리성 (pH=11.7)에서 액정구조가 생성되는지 현미경으로 확인하였다. 또한 교반 속도에 따른 액정의 형성 입자를 편광현미경으로 관찰 하였다. 교반 시간은 모두 동일하게 3분 동안 Homo-mixer로 교반하였고, 교반속도는 2500rpm, 3500 rpm, 4500rpm으로 증가시켜 액정의 상태를 관찰하였다. 그 결과 한국산 계면활성제가 2종의 외국산 보다 안정하고, 선명한 액정구조가 형성되는 것을 알 수 있었고, 영국산의 경우 유화입경이 분균일하여 불안정한 상태를 보였다. 일본산의 경우, 한국산과 유사한 구조와 성능을 가지고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 한국산 계면활성제는 외국산과 비교하여 우수한 유화성능을 가지고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 응용분야로 국산화한 Sugar Crystal-LC 계면활성제를 사용하여 액정크림, 로션, 아이크림 등 다양한 제형개발이 가능하고, 화장품산업은 물론 의약품산업 및 제약산업에서 피부외용제의 유화기술로 폭넓게 응용이 가능할 것으로 기대한다.
