최근 건강에 대한 관심이 높아지면서 천연 기능물질을 이용한 고기능 및 고부가가치 상품개발이 여러 산업분야에서 일반화되는 추세이다. 대표적으로 마이크로캡슐은 원하는 기능을 발휘할 수 있는 기능성 물질을 다양한 방법으로 다양한 제품에 부여함으로써, 기능성 물질을 오랜 기간 동안 외부로 방출하거나 외부의 환경으로부터 보호하는 수단으로 각광받고 있다. 이러한 마이크로캡슐은 의약분야 제초제, 멸충제, 곰팡이 방지제, 살균제로 적용되는 농약분야, 식품 분야, 화장품 분야 등의 전반에 걸쳐 응용 및 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 다양한 나노 합성기술과 유/무기 하이브리드를 이용해 서방화 관련 기술을 개발하여 보습성, 항균, 노화방지, 외부 유해물질로부터의 피부보호 특성을 가진 인체 친화형 복합기능성 섬유 가공조제를 개발하여 다양한 섬유소재에 적용하고자 하며, 궁극적으로 기존 선진국 제품의 기능을 뛰어넘는 원천기술, 즉 새로운 가공제 합성과 응용성, 그 성능평가와 동시에 최적의 처리기술을 개발함으로써 섬유제품의 부가가치를 높이는 계기를 마련하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 나노미터 직경을 갖는 침상형의 주형(hydroxyapatite)을 이용하여 중공 나노구조체를 제조 한 후 이에 천연고분자를 혼합하여 초음파처리 후 유/무기 하이브리드 기술을 이용한 서방성 가공제를 합성하였다. 중공의 나노구조체 확인은 투과전자현미경(TEM)을 이용하였으며, 주형의 나노구조체는 주사전자현미경(FE-SEM)으로 확인하였다. 이상의 결과를 통해 본 연구에서 제안한 방법이 나노구조체의 새로운 합성방법으로써 가능성을 확인할 수 있었다.

The principal objective of this study was to produce a chitosan nanoparticle (NP) system for improving blood circulation. Chitosan NPs were prepared using fucoidan and $poly-{\gamma}-glutamic$ acid (PGA), denoted as CS/Fu and CS/Fu/PGA NPs, respectively. As the chitosan concentration was increased, the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) of the NPs significantly increased (p<0.05). When the concentration of fucoidan and ${\gamma}-PGA$ was 5-20 and $1-10{\mu}g/mL$, respectively, the size of the CS/Fu and CS/Fu/PGA NPs was approximately 200 and 100 nm, respectively. With an increase in the fucoidan and PGA concentration, the APTT of CS/Fu and CS/Fu/PGA NPs significantly increased (p<0.05). These results suggest that CS/Fu and CS/Fu/PGA NPs could be used as a potent NP system for improving blood circulation.

The ecofriendly yellow ocher is used in the manufacturing of cosmetics, construction, and food packaging. The polyethylene terephthalate (PET) used for manufacturing food containers has a microporous structure that causes aeration. Hydrophilic yellow ocher may be applied to hydrophobic PET by surface modification to overcome this issue. The aim of this study is to fabricate a yellow ocher polystyrene hybrid structure in the form of nanoparticles using an optimizing molar ratio of styrene, divinylbenzene, and potassium peroxodisulfate for use in emulsion polymerization. The polymerization was conducted in a yellow ocher suspension that was prepared by dispersing mechanically ground yellow ocher in DI water. The prepared hybrid structure was measured using scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction. The measurement revealed the spherical morphology and Si component that resulted from the yellow ocher in the polystyrene particles. We expect that this hybrid structure would be used as platform material to minimize aeration in PET.

In this work, the basic research for nano-capsulation of L-ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) in nonaqueous system was carried out. 500 nm-sized nano-capsules were prepared in nonaqueous system, and the emulsified capsule had mean size of 410 nm. The stability test on the temperature and the storage periods was performed at 4, 20, and $30^{\circ}C$ for 30 days. After 5 days, L-ascorbic acid was extricated 5.1, 9.3, and 12.5% at each temperature, but only 1~2 % was extricated after the time span. Likewise, the results of the skin susceptibility on women and men, each 10 persons, revealed that the very thin allergy was shown from only a woman after 2 days, but it was not shown from the others.

We have performed microencapsulation of phenyl acetate using poly (urea-formaldehyde) as a shell material, and studied the effect of agitation rate,. core/shell mass ratio, surfactant concentration, and reaction time on capsule characteristics such as size, shell thickness, and surface morphology. The formation of microcapsules was confirmed by FTIR and TGA, and capsule characteristics were studied by optical microscopy and FE-SEM. Capsule size and shell thickness reduced with increasing agitation rate. As the mass of shell material was increased, shell thickness and nanoparticles on capsule surface increased. Capsule size and shell thickness decreased with increasing the concentration of a surfactant. Increasing reaction time caused increased capsule yield and shell thickness.

This study utilized nano-liposomes for the purpose of stabilizing and increasing the solubility of biotin, a water-soluble active material with low solubility. The particle size, zeta potential, and polydispersity index were confirmed with a nano zetasizer. It was possible to manufacture nano liposomes at 100 to 250 nm of particle size and -80 to -30 mV of zeta potential. Dialysis membrane method (DMM) was used to measure the capsulation efficiency of biotin in biotin nano-liposomes, and results showed that pH increased biotin nano-liposomes had higher capsulation efficiency than normal biotin nano-liposome. Through this experiment, it was confirmed that the pH has a great influence on the stability of biotin nano-liposomes. In vitro franz diffusion cell method was used to measure in vitro skin absorption rate of biotin nano-liposomes. The shape of the formulation and biotin solubility in nano-liposome was observed by cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM). Through this study, we confirmed that biotin, which is introduced as closely related to hair health, can be incorporated into a nano-liposome drug delivery system, to make biotin nano-liposome with improved solubility and precipitation problems.

Microcapsules containing the suspension of conducting materials such as carbon nanotube (CNT) or polyaniline (PANI) were prepared by in-situ polymerization of melamine and formaldehyde. Stable microcapsules were prepared and the mean diameter of the observed microcapsules was in the range of $10-20{\mu}m$. The surface morphology and chemical structure of microcapsules were investigated using optical microscope (OM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The thermal properties of samples were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The conductivity of ruptured microcapsule containing the suspension of CNTs or PANIs in tetrachloroethylene and Isopar-G was measured. As the amount of CNTs and PANIs in the core of microcapsules increased, the measured current increased. Conductivity measurement results suggest that poly (melamine-formaldehyde) based core-shell microcapsules could be applied to self-healing electronic materials systems, where CNTs or PANIs bridge a broken circuit upon release.

비타민 C(L-ascorbic acid)는 강한 항산화성, 피부에 대한 높은 안전성으로 인해 피부의 노화방지, 미백, 주름 개선 등의 기능성 화장품 원료로써 많은 관심이 있는 물질이지만, 화학적으로 매우 불안정하여 쉽게 산화, 분해되므로 화장품 제형으로 포함시키는데 곤란한 문제가 있다. 본 연구에서는 비타민 C 의 안정성에 대한 단점을 보완하기 위하여 생체 및 피부 친화성이 우수한 무기물을 사용하여 비타민 C 를 캡슐화(encapsulation)한 분말상의 유-무기 복합물질 Vitabrid-C 를 합성하고, 이를 함유하는 피부 미백용 트윈케익 파우더를 개발하였다. 우선 Vitabrid-C 는 수용액상에서 비타민 C 를 수화된 산화아연(ZnO)으로 1 차 캡슐화하여 나노입자를 형성시키고, 그 표면을 실리카(silica)나노 입자로 한번 더 코팅하여 표면의 껍질이 다공특성을 갖는 분말을 제조함으로써 완성하였다. 이렇게 제조된 Vitabrid-C는 순수 비타민 C 에 비해 우수한 안정성을 보였으며, 캡슐 내 비타민 C 가 서서히 방출되는 서방특성을 발휘하였다. 또한 Vitabrid-C는 입자의 크기가 미세하고 균일하여 트윈케익 처방에 용이하게 적용할 수 있었다. Vitabrid-C와 순수 비타민 C의 생화학적 동등성에 대한 평가는 tyrosinase 억제능(L-DOPA oxidase 억제) 및 DPPH항산화 실험을 통하여 비교하였다. 트윈 케익 처방에 적용된 Vitabrid-C 에서 비타민 C 의 피부 투과경향을 Franz diffusion cell 법을 이용하여 확인하였다 또한 Vitabrid-C가 포함된 트윈케익을 건강한 피부를 가진 25 세 이상되는 여성의 전박에 색소 침착을 유도한 후 피부색 개선 효과 평가를 통해 임상적 효능을 평가하였다.

Magnetic Fe-Co(C) nanocapsules and Fe-Co nanoparticles were prepared by arc-discharge in two kinds of atmospheres, i.e. methane and a mixture of ($H_2$+Ar), respectively. Characterization and magnetic properties of this two kinds of ultrafine particles were investigated systematically by means of X-ray diffraction, Mssbauer spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, energy disperse spectroscopy analysis, chemical analysis, oxygen determination and magnetization measurement. Effects of carbon element, decomposed from a methane atmosphere in carbon arc process, on phase structures, magnetic states and surface characterization were studied in comparison to that of Ar element. Two ultrafine particles showed a little difference in the weight ratio of (Fe/co) and the size for Fe-Co nanoparticles was about two times bigger than Fe-Co(C) nanocapsules. The saturation magnetization of Fe-Co (C) nanocapsules was about 8% higher than that of Fe-Co nanoparticles while their phase constitutions were similar. Although no carbon could be detected by XRD measurement because of extremely thin shells on the surfaces of the cores, it is still believed that they are carbon and oxygen layers.
